The notion of cultural property and heritage have a variety of legal definitions and regimes that exist in domestic law and international law. The chapter also considers the differences between the 1972 Convention, the 1954 Convention and its Protocols, while regarding the notion of armed conflicts and occupations. The chapter looks into some frameworks of the 1970 UNESCO and the 1995 UNIDROIT Conventions, the 1994 Council of Europe Archaeological Heritage Convention, and EU law.
