Many of the most respected museums house stolen antiquities. High-end auction houses and dealers sell loot on a daily basis. Upstanding citizens freely engage in this criminal market \u2013 where high culture meets smuggling, greed and white-collar crime. Unlike most illegal commodities, trafficked antiquities can be openly bought and sold, and are often displayed in public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this presentation, Yates will explore how criminology research is used to understand white-collar crime in the art world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This lecture is co-presented with the support of the Department of Law & Legal Studies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

杏吧原创 the Shannon Lecture Series<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 2018 Shannon Lecture series examines \u201cbad archaeology\u201d \u2013 what happens when the practice of archaeology is done in bad faith? Modern archaeology emerged from a colonialist setting where the heroic lone (male) adventure wrestled knowledge in exotic (to him) places. In many ways, the field has never shed that association and the promise of adventure and heroism. The 2018 series of lectures will explore some of the ways \u201cbad archaeology\u201d has meaningful consequences \u2013 especially in the Canadian context. By understanding \u201cbad\u201d archaeology, we may begin to understand the power of \u201cgood\u201d archaeology for our present day and age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shannon Lecture series is made possible by the Shannon Fund, an endowment created by Lois May Long, who was a friend of the 杏吧原创 History Department and longtime support for both students and faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
