Alexander Peukert

A Critique of the Ontology of Intellectual Property Law

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Alexander Peukert provides the first comprehensive critique of the idea that 'intellectual property' (IP) exists as an abstract object that can be owned. This book develops an alternative IP theory, according to which IP rights provide their holders with an exclusive privilege to use 'Master Artefacts'.
