Os esforços e entraves para a restituição de bens primários roubados durante o período colonial

Abstract

This paper seeks to increase the relevance of the debates about the restitution processes of cultural goods stolen in the colonial period, with the intention of exposing the main efforts and obstacles that exist today for the return of artifacts, sculptures, costumes and any works originally produced by nations and societies that were affected by colonialism and imperialism and had their goods stolen. Through a critical analysis, using post-colonialist International Relations theory, documents from institutions that have worked to formalize the issue of restitution, and scholarly articles on the impediments to restitution, it is hoped to enter the dimensions of the debate regarding what has currently been done and what forces weaken and undermine the return of stolen goods
