Dr Lucas Lixinski is the Dean's Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of New South Wales Faculty of Law (Sydney, Australia). He holds a PhD in International Law from the European University Institute (Florence, Italy). He researches and writes primarily in the areas of international cultural heritage law and international human rights law. He is Brazilian, and received his first law degree from the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (Porto Alegre, Brazil).
Lixinski's book covers an extensive range of issues spanning across
various fields of international laws, offering a much-needed
multi-dimensional perspective to ICH protection ... It is a welcome
addition to the literature and an informative resource that should
prompt other scholars and practitioners to re-think ICH protection
from a new, multi-dimensional perspective.
*Sun Thathong, The British Yearbook of International Law*
This book provides an excellent summary of overarching themes in
efforts to safeguard ICH and provide remedies, including addressing
the difficulties of providing legal protection for constantly
evolving and self-defining living cultures ... highly recommended
for practitioners and students within the legal field, especially
those focusing on intellectual property or cultural heritage
sectors, and related interdisciplinary areas. Lixinski thoroughly
covers novel theoretical tensions as well as complex substantive
and institutional legal matters in a clear and readable manner,
providing useful insights into legal and social issues surrounding
ICH protection.
