the impact of the international legal framework in particular the wto and unesco on the pursuit of Cultural diversity Objectives online
Social Science Research Network, 2014Co-Authors: Mira BurriAbstract:This is a brief contribution that analyzes the impact of the existing international legal framework, in particular that of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and of the United Nations Educational Social and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), on the policy space that the European Union (EU) and its Member States have for the pursuit of Cultural Objectives. The paper contemplates an expansion of the EU Cultural policy measures into online media services, as prescribed by the EU Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD), and matches this with the existent policy space and its potential future limitations. The paper closes with a critique on the lack of innovation in the domain of EU Cultural policy for online audiovisual media, especially as the causal link between displayed EU content and actually viewed EU content deteriorates under the conditions of the digital networked environment.

Cultural policy and investment in china do they realize the government s Cultural Objectives
Journal of Policy Modeling, 2021Co-Authors: David Throsby, Shusheng GaoAbstract:Abstract Cultural policy in China has both economic and Cultural Objectives. In this paper we consider how these two Objectives are linked through increases in Cultural output. We use a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the Chinese economy to analyse the impact of Cultural investment on the output of Cultural goods and services between 2009 and 2015, and we carry forward the simulations to 2030. Our results show that this Cultural policy instrument has had a positive impact on the output of Cultural goods and services in a manner that also underpins the purely Cultural Objectives of government.

the new unesco convention on Cultural diversity a counterbalance to the wto
Journal of International Economic Law, 2006Co-Authors: Christoph B GraberAbstract:On 20 October 2005, the 33rd UNESCO General Conference adopted by a majority of 148 votes to two the Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (CCD). The major Objectives of the CCD are the recognition of the dual nature of Cultural expressions as objects of trade and artefacts of Cultural value and the recognition of the sovereign right of governments to formulate and implement Cultural policies and measures for the protection and promotion of Cultural diversity. The ambitious role assigned to the CCD by its proponents is to fill an existing lacuna for Cultural Objectives in public international law and to serve as a Cultural counterbalance to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in future conflicts between trade and culture. Opponents, however, have criticized the CCD as an instrument of disguised protectionism and claimed that it violates freedom of expression and information. This article endeavours to explain how Cultural diversity has become an issue of international law and provides a critical assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the CCD. It explores in particular the possible linkages between the CCD and the WTO. Copyright 2006, Oxford University Press.

the national museums archeticture between designers vision and national Cultural Objectives a case study of both the jewish museum in berlin and the grand egyptian museum
International Design Journal, 2014Co-Authors: Ahmed Mohamed Mohamed Awad, Abdul Rahman Bakr, Ashraf HusainAbstract:This study focused on a common phenomenon, which is that the architecture of national museums and their internal spaces are designed according to the viewpoint of the architects of those museums and their own vision, based on personal ideas and concepts only, without being compatible with the national Cultural goals of the nations and peoples who own those museums. The study used the descriptive and analytical method to study how Cultural national goals can govern museum architecture as an alternative to the individual formulations of the designer with limited viewpoints. The study begins with defining the concept of the museum, the scientific definition as a Cultural, educational and entertainment center, with an indication of its various functions of preserving, maintaining, and disseminating archaeological awareness, information and others, then discussing what is known as the museum system and its three elements, namely the human being, the museum’s holdings and the museum’s architecture, and from there it proceeds to study the common link between the elements of the symbolic system. The three, which is the symbol as an alphabetical unit of expression and dialogue between the visitor, the museum display and the museum architecture, and through it the national Cultural goals of the National Museum and its nation are presented, with an explanation of what the expression and meaning are, and the clarification of the expression mechanisms in architecture in general between direct frankness and hidden symbolism, and then exposure in detail to The foundations of the science of "semiotics" as the science concerned with symbol and the various mechanisms of expression, especially in architecture and pictorial works of art. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the foundations of "hermeneutics", which is the science of reading and interpreting the meanings of different symbols. Through these foundations, the subject was analyzed and read the meanings of the architecture of the Jewish Museum in Berlin and the Grand Egyptian Museum to determine the extent to which the design of their architecture and their internal spaces are compatible with the national Cultural goals of their two nations through the museum system, as it appears after the discussion that the architecture of the Jewish Museum in Berlin "is a symbolic embodiment of the journey of the diaspora of the Jewish people, starting from the event of their exit from ancient Egypt to the event of their ordeal in Europe with Nazi Germany during World War II, which came in line with the national Cultural goals and the actual purpose of establishing the museum. As for the architecture of the" Grand Egyptian "museum, it is A symbolic embodiment of the journey of the ancient Jews exiting from ancient Egypt to their new home in the land of "Palestine" and their construction there their sacred temple after their construction is the greatest features of ancient Egypt’s civilization, considering the event of the exodus and the forced labor of the ancient Jews in ancient Egypt the most important event in all ancient Egyptian history from the point of view of designers The museum is what qualifies it to be represented in the architecture of the "Great Egyptian" Museum, which contradicts in total and detail the national Cultural goals of the Egyptian nation that the museum was built for approval. Then the results came The research decides to follow the designers of the architecture of the Jewish Museum in "Berlin" to the Cultural national goals of the nation that owns this museum. As for the designers of the architecture of the "Great Egyptian" museum, they steered far from the Cultural national goals of the nation that owns this museum. Rather, their design for the museum and its Cultural mission contradicts the established historical and scientific facts.
