Preface and Acknowledgements
This book is the outcome of a multi-year journey that started at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) in 1999. Inspired by Professor Kurt Siehr and supervised by Professor Carole Goldberg, I first approached the question of Native American cultural property claims with a case study regarding the rights to a Lakota ghost dance shirt and the skull of an Arikara Indian, which are both in the possession of the North America Native Museum in Zurich. Today, I am happy to present a work that applies a more abstract methodology and a broader perspective on international cultural property repatriation
