A new bill, presented on Wednesday by Culture Minister Rachida Dati, would allow the French government to authorize restitutions by decree, bypassing the traditionally time-consuming requirement for parliamentary approval.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"537\" data-end=\"894\">The proposed law, approved by the French Cabinet, comes as part of President Emmanuel Macron\u2019s 2017 pledge to make the return of African heritage a \u201ctop priority.\u201d Despite this commitment, France has returned only a handful of artefacts, while other European countries like Germany have returned more than 1,000 items to African nations.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-start=\"896\" data-end=\"1157\">\n<p data-start=\"898\" data-end=\"1157\">\u201cThe text I presented this morning to the Council of Ministers is a powerful act and a powerful ambition for peace, for the recognition of memories, and for the renewal of our relations with countries that were wronged,\u201d Dati posted on X (formerly Twitter).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3 data-start=\"1159\" data-end=\"1184\">What the Bill Changes<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1186\" data-end=\"1555\">Between 1815 and 1972, during France\u2019s colonial empire, thousands of artefacts were stolen, looted, or acquired through violence. The new law seeks to streamline the process of returning such cultural property to its country of origin, including countries such as Senegal, Chad, Ethiopia, and Algeria, which have lodged extensive claims for restitution.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1557\" data-end=\"1849\">Under the bill, objects could be returned without requiring individual parliamentary votes, a key bottleneck in past restitution efforts. Instead, France\u2019s top administrative court, the Conseil d\u2019\u00c9tat, would be responsible for approving returns but only under strict conditions.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1851\" data-end=\"1899\">Restitution Still Faces Bureaucratic Hurdles<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1901\" data-end=\"2195\">Despite the promise of speed, cultural experts warn the legislation may not deliver as quickly as hoped. Each artefact must still undergo a <strong data-start=\"2041\" data-end=\"2060\">rigorous review<\/strong> by a <strong data-start=\"2066\" data-end=\"2100\">bilateral scientific committee<\/strong>, providing <strong data-start=\"2112\" data-end=\"2158\">historical, legal, and provenance evidence<\/strong> that the object was taken illicitly.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-start=\"2197\" data-end=\"2430\">\n<p data-start=\"2199\" data-end=\"2430\">\u201cI\u2019m going to be nuanced because for each object it is also necessary to examine the request and to have a scientific, historical and legal study,\u201d said <strong data-start=\"2352\" data-end=\"2380\">Catherine Morin-Desailly<\/strong>, a member of the French Senate Culture Committee.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2432\" data-end=\"2616\">Moreover, only artefacts designated for public display qualify. Items such as military relics, public archives, and archaeological finds are excluded from the bill.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2618\" data-end=\"2663\">Political Pushback and Colonial Reckoning<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2665\" data-end=\"2897\">The bill\u2019s fast-tracking has sparked criticism among some French lawmakers. Senator Pierre Ouzoulias, a member of the cultural commission, accused the government of rushing a complex and sensitive issue after years of delay.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-start=\"2899\" data-end=\"3122\">\n<p data-start=\"2901\" data-end=\"3122\">\u201cFrance has not finished mourning its colonial past. That\u2019s one of the challenges of restitution,\u201d Ouzoulias wrote on X, also calling for an independent scientific body to oversee the process and avoid politicization.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3 data-start=\"3124\" data-end=\"3145\">A Long Road Ahead<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3147\" data-end=\"3479\">The bill will go before the French Senate for a vote on September 24, with stakeholders across Africa and Europe watching closely. For African countries that have long waited for justice and cultural reconciliation, the bill represents a potential breakthrough though bureaucratic red tape may continue to stall returns.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3481\" data-end=\"3695\">Meanwhile, cultural leaders in Africa continue to call for transparency, urgency, and full access to their heritage, as France grapples with how to confront and correct the legacies of its colonial history.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>France is taking a major legislative step toward accelerating the return of African cultural heritage looted during the colonial era.
