Cultural Diversity in International Law - Bog

The UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions was adopted in 2005, an instrument designed to allow States to protect and promote cultural industries especially when these may be considered to be threatened by international trade agreements. This book examines the effectiveness of the Convention, not only from a trade and culture standpoint, but also regarding international cooperation and development for cultural diversity, a field that has developed remarkably since the entry into force of the Convention in 2007.
