Funded Activity Summary

An investigation of two non-punitive crime control strategies for the illicit traffic in S.E. Asian antiquities. The preservation of cultural heritage is significant for the maintenance of national identity and security. The illegal plunder and international trafficking of cultural heritage, not infrequently linked with other international crime, is of national and regional concern. The response to the destruction of the Iraq Museum evidences the level of community concern. However, the nature of the illicit antiquities market means that traditional punitive crime control strategies are ineffective. The Australian government has participated in international efforts to develop new control strategies for this form of international crime. Focusing on the illicit market in SE Asian antiquities, this research investigates two non- punitive strategies.
