Zagrożenie dziedzictwa kulturowego przestępczością – analiza wydarzeń w 2021 roku
Criminal Threats to National Heritage – An Analysis of the Events of 2021

Summary/Abstract: There are a variety of methods that may be used in the analysis of crimes against cultural heritage which allow us to determine the level of risk. A comprehensive study covering all instances of crime against cultural goods during the period of one year allows us to note tendencies in criminals’ behaviour and helps develop methods to counteract similar crimes in the future. The article presents the selected cases of crime in 2021 based on statistics prepared by the police, National Revenue Administration and border police. The study is a part of an annual series and aims to illustrate the trends and threats to monuments and cultural assets throughout a given year. The complementary presentation of collective information on the threats posed to cultural heritage is essential to develop a strategy for its protection from a research perspective.
