Project name: Legal forms of cultural heritage management in Europe in a comparative legal perspective”.

Brief description of the project:

The aim of the project, carried out within the framework of international scientific cooperation, is to analyze and systematize the most important institutions of national cultural heritage law in selected European countries (Croatia, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, Poland, Switzerland and the United Kingdom), in a comparative perspective. The research undertaken as part of the project thus aims to investigate whether and to what extent European systems of cultural heritage law have similarities or certain unifying elements, and if so, whether it is possible to establish common terminology and concepts relating to this area of regulation in Europe. The project’s contribution to a broader, international research program conducted by the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) in Paris is to analyze the Polish legal system for the protection of cultural heritage based on a comparative research questionnaire. In this connection, it will be examined whether and to what extent Polish law in this area belongs to the common European core of cultural heritage law, and whether it contributes to its construction and crystallization. The scientific analysis undertaken as part of the project is based on the study of the content of normative acts, court decisions, public administration practice, cultural policy instruments and the literature on the subject. The main result of this research project will be a contribution to the development of a comprehensive dictionary of comparative cultural heritage law (Dictionnaire compare
