 tor\, Museum of Modern Art\, New York City\nSince the earliest civilizatio
 ns\, art has played an integral role in the development of society.  Throu
 ghout history\, art has been produced and accumulated as a way to understa
 nd\, influence and provoke.  The history of art\, on the other hand\, has 
 been plagued with theft\, deceit and violence.  Under Napoleon\, French ar
 mies hauled the Pharonic structures of Egypt to Paris\, while the English 
 were transporting Greece’s Elgin Marbles to London.  During World War II h
 omes were plundered and looted\; in the cold war of Vietnam\, Cambodian sc
 ulptures were being airlifted\, and even as recent as the war in Iraq\, ar
 chaeological sites were pillaged and artifacts have disappeared.\nThe Frie

 Modern Art\, in New York City in a lecture examining several recent cases 
 involving claims for restitution of works of art and the many social\, pol
