99 questions with Naazima Kamardeen

99 Questions Podcast - Podcast tekijän mukaan Humboldt Forum

What happens to the right to culture when the objects of its manifestations are forcibly dislocated ? Can the return of objects restore this human right? And what does cultural diplomacy have to do with restitution? In this interview with law professor Naazima Kamardeen from the University of Colombo we learn about colonial collections and restitution processes through the lens of law and justice. Naazima Kamardeen also talks about the concept of guardianship and what the loss of the Buddhist statue of Tara means for Sri Lanka.
