Dr. Derek Fincham

Welcome to the Illicit Cultural Property Blog. I am a Professor at South Texas College of Law Houston where I teach art and cultural heritage law, among other subjects. I work to provide regular updates on thefts, antiquities looting, scholarship involving these disputes, and legal developments in the field.
