This book provides a comprehensive examination of the subject of cultural expertise, addressing its theoretical developments, ethical debates, regulatory frameworks, and practices.

The book offers theoretical and practical tools to those with academic or professional interests in cultural expertise, detailing its scope, application, and impact.
