Spoils of War v. Cultural Heritage: The Russian Cultural Property Law in Historical Context is sponsored by Harvard Law School Arts & Literature Law Society;
Commission for Art Recovery; Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies at Harvard University; Foundation for International Cultural Diplomacy; Harvard Law School European Law Research Center, Feb. 8-9, 2008, at Harvard.
After WWII, Soviet authorities, seeking reparations for the extensive costs of Nazi aggression, used special “Trophy Brigades” to empty museums, castles, and salt mines in Germany and Eastern Europe, transporting millions of cultural treasures to the USSR. These included German state-owned cultural objects, cultural objects taken from churches and synagogues, as well as a great deal of private property that had been looted by the Germans from individuals. The art works taken back to the Soviet Union were held in relative secrecy for years, until the final years of glastnost (Гла́сность). As European countries started to demand their cultural treasures and archives, Russian legislators passed a law that potentially nationalizes all cultural treasures brought to Russia at the end of World War II. In 1999 the Constitutional Court issued an opinion basically upholding the law. How do these actions comport with international law? What are the chances for restitution of these displaced cultural valuables?

Cornell Law School and UCLA School of Law have created the ELS Bibliography, a collaborative bibliographic database of empirical legal studies and scholarship. The database features searching by author, title, and subject, as well as limiting by year. They are soliciting comments and suggestions on the database.
A link to the ELS Bibliography has been added to our own Empirical resource page, which features links to databases and other valuable empirical resources.

Last week at the annual meeting of the Association of American Law Schools I had the opportunity to talk to a number of people about this blog. I was pleased that many of them agreed that a blog to help people track law-related conferences, calls for papers, and workshops was a good idea. A few even said they’d seen it.
One person noted that many of the faculty at her school were not blog users and needed to be persuaded to try one out. That made me think that it might be useful to explain the ways that you can use this blog. It’s got a lot of content and a number of tools for navigating, so some tips could help.
So if you’re not a regular blog user, take a look at the new page, Ways to Use This Site, and take a look around.
Whether you’re a busy blogger or an occasional visitor, remember to send us your announcements of conferences and symposia — legalscholarshipblog|at|gmail.com. We also welcome comments and suggestions.
– Mary Whisner (part of the UW end of our cross-country collaboration)
