Trusts, fideikomissum and foundations along with property and their legal potential are vital for cultural heritage management in the future. The economic model of cultural heritage should comply with changes in the legal system. The national perspective plays an important part in cultural heritage management in an international context.
This book presents the legal institutions involved in cultural heritage protection from a Polish point of view. Its authors set out the legal framework of cultural management in the context of private and public law. They analyse the Anglo-Saxon concept of trusts, fideicommissum set up by aristocratic families and, in the Polish legal system, foundations and property law. The authors research these institutions in terms of their ability to secure valuable cultural property selected for its artistic, historic and cultural qualities and of their effectiveness in doing so. They also outline a model of economic heritage management putting forward proposals for its future operation.
