The Western world is increasingly recognizing its unjust colonial past. Looted art and other illegitimately obtained cultural objects should be returned to their countries of origin. Jos van Beurden advocates a new ethics of restitution. In an interview, he addresses questions of justice and casuistry, such as: What characterizes the injustice of colonial looting? How do we know whether progress is made in the return-dossier? Should scientific finds like the Java man also be returned? To whom should Māori heads be returned? Are there good reasons to keep certain objects for Dutch museums? How should they be exhibited? Is the current return policy sufficient? %U https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/FEP2023.1.007.BEUR
