Copyright, Property and the Social Contract (eBook, PDF)

The Reconceptualisation of Copyright
Redaktion: Gilchrist, John; Fitzgerald, Brian

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides international perspectives on the law of copyright in relation to three core themes - copyright and developing countries; the government and copyright; and technology and the future of copyright. The third theme includes an examination of the extent to which technology will dictate the development of the law, and a re-examination of the role of copyright in fostering innovation and creativity. As a critique, one chapter discusses how certain rights can create or reinforce social inequality under copyright royalty systems. Underlying these themes is the role the law of copyright has in encouraging or impeding human flourishing.
