The art of the internet

In 2004, the Ministry of Justice ordered an investigation into the antiques and art trade within the framework of the 'Organised Crime Prevention Programme'. It emerged from this investigation that Internet auctions are gaining ground compared to normal auctions. A survey carried out in 2007 by Interpol indicates an increase in illicit trafficking in cultural goods on the web; however, it is difficult to assess the precise role of the Internet within this illegal trade, and the way buyers and sellers go about their business on the web. To gain better insight into the nature and scale of the trade in cultural goods on the Internet, the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science commissioned exploratory research. The research comprised a literature study, interviews with experts and an Internet search. In "The art of the internet", the researchers present their findings.
