Abstract

The paper discusses the restrictions imposed by economy and politics to the normative design of cultural rights in the international legal order. The axis of this analysis is the UNESCO Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (2005), but we also detach the problematic conditions of the insertion of cultural rights in the universal and regional systems of human rights. Finally, we focus on the status of cultural rights in relation to intellectual property and to the WTO regime. The work follows a line of analysis from systems theory in order to think the relations between law, politics and economy.
