	Intercultural Dialogues and Cultural Security - Global Policy Forum - Globalization
		Culture is not an abstraction, it is a living, open totality that evolves by constantly integrating individual and collective choices that are taken in interaction with other, similar wholes.
		As it is proposed here, the promotion of cultural pluralism not only protects the freedom to create and exchange cultural works with a special status in the world of commerce and it does not imply only the guarantee for States to adopt and conduct their cultural policies.
		The objective of such a World Council of Cultures is also to defend the concept of culture as an interactional and compositional process to ensure that basic human choices can be exercised in conditions of freedom without determinant external constraints.

	Iran: The New Reformists - Center for American Progress (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		The dominance of the clerical estate over national affairs was further strengthened by the creation of a Council of Guardians, which is largely made of up of clerics responsible to the dictates of the Supreme Leader and empowered to screen all candidates for public office and to scrutinize parliamentary legislation for conformity to religious principles.

	ZNet \| Iraq \| Selling-out Iraq's Cultural Heritage
		Consequences are not only the direct and physical looting or destruction of cultural goods, but also the indirect and long-term undermining of institutional capabilities that are necessary for the safeguarding and sustainable use of cultural resources.
		Moreover, the goal should not neither be mere law-enforcement, nor to criminalise private ownership of cultural goods, but to strengthen ethics and solidarity, and a sense of awareness that access to cultural goods should not be monopolised by the rich and powerful.
		The Council already went into action: It weighed in on behalf of Frederick Schultz who was convicted in February 2002 of massive illegal trade with Egyptian antiquities into the United States via Switzerland.

	Category:Archaeology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Archaeology or archæology or sometimes in American English archeology (from the Greek words αρχαίος = ancient and λόγος = word/speech/discourse) is the study of human cultures through the recovery, documentation and analysis of cultural and environmental data, including architecture, artifacts, biofacts, human remains, and landscapes.
		The goals of archaeology are to document and explain the origins and development of human culture, culture history, cultural evolution, and human behaviour and ecology.
		It is the only discipline that possesses the method and theory for the collection and interpretation of information about the pre-written human past, and can also make a critical contribution to our understanding of documented societies.

	ASOR's information on Iraq - news and our efforts to preserve its cultural heritage
		Known as the 'Iraq Cultural Heritage Protection Act', this bill is an attempt to protect the cultural and archaeological heritage of Iraq by restricting the importation of antiquities from Iraq into the United States.
		Our center in Baghdad was one of the first two "schools" in the American Schools of Oriental Research and was responsible for bringing generations of scholars into the field and funding many of the major excavations of the 20th century.
