N2 - Trafficking in cultural property has long been considered mostly a social, economic and cultural problem, instead of a proper criminal one. Only at the turn of the century the focus really started shifting on the need for penal suppression. This chapter, after a brief analysis of the reasons behind this delay, including the ‘grey’ (not ‘black’) nature of the international market in artworks and antiquities, will focus on the most recent developments in international and EU law aimed at preventing and combating cultural property trafficking, as well as on the reasons that prompted this significant change in attitude by both national and international policymakers.
