GAINESVILLE, Mo., April 13 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 6-7, the U.S. State Department's Cultural Property Advisory Committee will deliberate on a request for renewal of import restrictions on a variety of objects that Italy claims as State cultural heritage. See: http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2010/2010-7898.htm The Ancient Coin Collectors Guild (ACCG) expects that, in this session, an attempt will be made to add coins to the list of restricted objects -- even though they have been exempted twice before in the past decade. If successful, this would mean that ancient coins minted in what is now Italy will require either an export permit from Italy or documentation indicating that they left Italy prior to the effective date of the restriction.
The Italian fashion industry rose to a position of international prominence in the second half of the twentieth century. An important factor in the sector's global success was the opening up of the international, particularly the American, markets. The changes that occurred within the fashion industry after World War II, most critically the end of the Parisian monopoly, offered opportunities that were exploited differently by the various competitors. While cities like London and New York managed to promote themselves as alternatives to Paris, Italy was initially unable to create a single fashion capital. Florence, Rome, and Milan felt themselves equally entitled to become the staging ground for Italian fashion production, but Milan, benefiting from certain features of its productive str...

GAINESVILLE, Mo., May 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Cultural Property Advisory Committee hearings on renewal of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Italy were held at the U.S. State Department in Washington D.C. on May 6-7.

GAINESVILLE, Mo. Jan. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In a press release of January 19th, the U.S. State Department (DOS) announced extension, for another five years, of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the U.S. and Italy "protecting Italy's archaeological materials representing the pre-Classical, Classical and Imperial Roman periods". The new agreement has, to the surprise of many, been expanded to include import restrictions on popular collectable coins of Italian types. These include early Roman issues and all coins of the ancient Greek states issued in what is now Italy. Details are outlined in the Federal Register of that date. Ironically, this action comes on the heels of Executive and Legislative Branch calls this week for the reduction of anti- business regulati...

Since World War ll, the debate between cultural internationalists and cultural nationalists has shaped international cultural-property law. Recently, some American museums, engaged in their enduring struggle to balance a mission of public education and scholarly study with the increasing risk of acquiring artifacts of disputed provenance, began to promote a middle ground of "cooperation, mutual understanding, and respect" between acquiring museums and source countries that builds upon the goals of the UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property. This new approach, defined here as "cultural pragmatism" attempts to bridge the impasse between advocates of the two opposing doctrines that has resulted ...
