Abstract:
Presents a fresh view of the old debate. The implications of this case for the wider issues of the restitution of cultural property are considered, namely the importance of refuting the arguments for the retention of the marbles in Britain, academic principles and museum collecting policy, political arguments, and the ownership of the past.
