Circulation And Control - Artistic Culture And Intellectual Property In The Nineteenth Century

by Marie-Stéphanie Delamaire

6,99€

 The nineteenth century witnessed a series of revolutions in the production and circulation of images. From lithographs and engraved reproductions of paintings to daguerreotypes, stereoscopic views, and mass-produced sculptures, works of visual art became available in a wider range of media than ever before. But the circulation and reproduction of artworks also raised new questions about the legal rights of painters, sculptors, engravers, photographers, architects, collectors, publishers, and subjects of representation (such as sitters in paintings or photographs). Copyright and patent laws tussled with informal cultural norms and business strategies as individuals and groups attempted to exert some degree of control over these visual creations. With contributions by art historians, legal scholars, historians of publishing, and specialists of painting, photography, sculpture, and graphic arts, this rich collection of essays explores the relationship between intellectual property laws and the cultural, economic, and technological factors that transformed the pictorial landscape during the nineteenth century. This book will be valuable reading for historians of art and visual culture; legal scholars who work on the history of copyright and patent law; and literary scholars and historians who work in the field of book history. It will also resonate with anyone interested in current debates about the circulation and control of images in our digital age.

Whose Book Is It Anyway?

by Janis Jefferies e Sarah Kember

6,99€

 Whose Book is it Anyway? is a provocative collection of essays that opens out the copyright debate to questions of open access, ethics, and creativity. It includes views – such as artist’s perspectives, writer’s perspectives, feminist, and international perspectives – that are too often marginalized or elided altogether. The diverse range of contributors take various approaches, from the scholarly and the essayistic to the graphic, to explore the future of publishing based on their experiences as publishers, artists, writers and academics. Considering issues such as intellectual property, copyright and comics, digital publishing and remixing, and what it means (not) to say one is an author, these vibrant essays urge us to view central aspects of writing and publishing in a new light. Whose Book is it Anyway? is a timely and varied collection of essays. It asks us to reconceive our understanding of publishing, copyright and open access, and it is essential reading for anyone invested in the future of publishing.

Sustainable Land Management - Challenges, Opportunities, And Trade-Offs

by World Bank

9,90€ + 10% CARD

 Land is the integrating component of all livelihoods depending on farm, forest, rangeland, or water (rivers, lakes, coastal marine) habitats. Due to varying political, social, and economic factors, the heavy use of natural resources to supply a rapidly growing global population and economy has resulted in the unintended mismanagement and degradation of land and ecosystems. 'Sustainable Land Management' provides strategic focus to the implementation of sustainable land management (SLM) components of the World Bank's development strategies. SLM is a knowledge-based procedure that integrates land, water, biodiversity, and environmental management to meet rising food and fiber demands while sustaining livelihoods and the environment. This book, aimed at policy makers, project managers, and development organization, articulates priorities for investment in SLM and natural resource management and identifies the policy, institutional, and incentive reform options that will accelerate the adoption of SLM productivity improvements and pro-poor growth.

Poor People'S Knowledge - Promoting Intellectual Property In Developing Countries

by Oxford University Press Usa

24,80€ + 10% CARD

 How can we help poor people earn more from their knowledge-rather than from their sweat and muscle alone? This book is about increasing the earnings of poor people in poor countries from their innovation, knowledge, and creative skills. Case studies look at the African music industry; traditional crafts and ways to prevent counterfeit crafts designs; the activities of fair trade organizations; biopiracy and the commercialization of ethnobotanical knowledge; the use of intellectual property laws and other tools to protect traditional knowledge. The contributors' motivation is sometimes to maintain the art and culture of poor people, but they recognize that except in a museum setting, no traditional skill can live on unless it has a viable market. Culture and commerce more often complement than conflict in the cases reviewed here. The book calls attention to the unwritten half of the World Trade Organization's Agreement on the Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property (TRIPS). TRIPS is about knowledge that industrial countries own, and which poor people buy. This book is about knowledge that poor people in poor countries generate and have to sell. It will be of interest to students and scholars of international trade and law, and to anyone with an interest in ways developing countries can find markets for cultural, intellectual, and traditional knowledge.

The Unitary Patent Package & Unified Patent Court - Problems, Possible Improvements And Alternatives

by Alain Strowel, Fernand De Visscher, Luc Desaunettes-Barbero e Vincent Cassiers

26,99€ + 10% CARD

 As of 1st of June 2023, after years of negotiations, setbacks and postponements, the Unitary Patent Package (UPP) enters into force: the European patent with unitary effect (EPUE) becomes a reality and the Unified Patent Court (UPC) starts its activities. Regrettably, the patent regime put in place is not a genuine EU system. Adopted through an enhanced cooperation procedure, it firstly does not include all EU Member States. Secondly, the conditions and the procedure for granting EPUE is in the hands of the European Patent Office, an international organization to which EU is not a party. Lastly, the substantive provisions and the litigation proceedings are defined by an international treaty (the UPC Agreement) to which EU is not a member, and by national laws for the remaining aspects. Such system carves patent law out of the EU legal and judicial orders and reduces the roles of the EU Parliament and Court of Justice. Challenges are numerous in terms of complexity, harmonization objectives, legality, business advantages and wider societal, economic and legal concerns, to name a few. With twenty-eight contributions from academics and practitioners, this book starts with putting the new system into historical, comparative and institutional contexts (Part I) before highlighting some issues under EU law and the perspective of EU integration (Part II). The institutional, jurisdictional and procedural questions raised by the UPC are then addressed (Part III), as well as the innovation and markets issues (Part IV). The last contributions discuss possible improvements and alternatives to the Unitary Patent Package (Part V).

Exhaustion Of Intellectual Property Rights - Doctrines, Policies, Reforms

by Shubha Ghosh

~~33,13€~~ 29,82€ 10% OFF

 This book examines the exhaustion doctrine of intellectual property (IP) rights, under which the rights of an IP owner are terminated after a predetermined exercise of those rights. It situates the law of IP exhaustion against a backdrop of legislative debate, policy, and technological developments across jurisdictions. Exploring the key principles of exhaustion in the fields of patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret law, Shubha Ghosh illustrates how this rule affects our consumption of entertainment, including ebooks, movies, and music, and even waste materials used for street art and upcycling. Updating existing research on the scope of exhaustion across various industries and contexts with compelling arguments for the right to repair movement, Ghosh analyses the relationship between IP and competition. The book also discusses the emerging concept of digital exhaustion, explaining how exhaustion can function in a digital environment among technological protections. Exhaustion of Intellectual Property Rights is a vital resource for students and scholars of competition law and policy, intellectual property law, and international trade and business, as well as policymakers, artists, and creative professionals.

Interface Of Intellectual Property Law With Other Legal Disciplines

~~33,13€~~ 29,82€ 10% OFF

 This book explores the interactions between intellectual property (IP) laws and other legal disciplines, examining potential policy implications raised by the growing influence of different legal frameworks on IP principles. Illustrating these issues, the book analyzes how they have shaped our understanding of IP laws and doctrines. Leading specialists debate the intersection of different areas of private, public and criminal law with intellectual property rights, drawing some forward-looking conclusions on the implications at legislative, judicial and theoretical level. In particular, they analyze such interactions as IP law and human rights, also delving into key administrative law influences on principles of copyright. They address the ways in which health law overlaps with IP law and demonstrate how the principle of good faith can be used in civil law cases. The book further outlines the relationship between fundamental areas of IP law, including patent law and regulatory data exclusivity, and real world applications such as public national security regulations. It identifies past and present challenges for trade secrets and criminal penalties, encouraging further research on the intersections of IP law with other legal fields. The Interface of Intellectual Property Law with other Legal Disciplines is a vital resource for scholars and students in IP law, public law, private law and criminal law. It is also beneficial to practitioners such as IP lawyers, in-house legal counsel and policymakers.

Ip Protection In China, Second Edition

~~198,68€~~ 178,81€ 10% OFF

 Before China''s entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Chinese IP regime was out-of-step with international standards. China has made rapid progress since then. To obtain approval for entry, it made all the necessary amendments to its Patent Law, Copyright Law, and the Trademark Law, and also revised relevant Implementation Rules to bring such measures into compliance with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). Despite full compliance with these standards, the Chinese IP system still involves distinct characteristics: for example, enforcement power is divided between two powerful and independent branches of the government, which can surprise U.S. practitioners accustomed to using the judicial branch as the primary means for addressing IP infringement issues.

Intellectual Property Rights And Their Valuation - A Handbook For Bankers, Companies And Their Advisers

by Peter Groves

~~195,44€~~ 175,90€ 10% OFF

 This book is designed to provide an introduction to an area of the law which even now remains a closed book to the majority of practising lawyers. Bankers are not expected to have an intimate knowledge of the law relating to intellectual property, but they should have, because customers are likely to own intellectual property rights which offer a valuable source of security for lending transactions. The banker dealing with clients who own intellectual property should be able to distinguish patents and trademarks, and appreciate what copyright may protect. This book is a valuable tool in this process. Finally, the impact of the European Union, which will radically reshape intellectual property laws in the UK in the next few years is considered.

Music Copyright, Creativity, And Culture

by Jennifer Jenkins

~~71,32€~~ 64,19€ 10% OFF

 Music Copyright, Creativity, and Culture is an interdisciplinary introduction to the economics, history, and law that shape the music we love. The book has an innovative design, combining accessible prose with timelines, infographics, flowcharts, and excerpts from a graphic novel. Through a series of chapters that take readers step by step through the fundamentals of copyright and creativity, Jennifer Jenkins clarifies basic concepts, lays out an engaging history, points out cultural effects of legal rules, and tells scores of stories of great musical controversies, past and present. The book is paired with a series of Spotify and YouTube playlists, so that readers can listen to the material under review. The end result is neither dry nor obscure. And this is as it should be, because the legal rules surrounding our musical culture are both important and captivating.You have probably heard stories where one musician is accused of copying another’s song. Maybe one of your favorite artists has been involved in such a dispute. By the time you finish reading this book, you know what the law might say about it: the lines it would draw between legitimate inspiration by shared cultural themes and outright theft that will result in substantial monetary damages. But you will know a lot more. You will have explored how a society even comes to think of music as something that can be owned: the cultural, technological, economic, and legal prerequisites of the system. You will have traced out the history of the great technologies that affected music, from musical notation—the invention of writing, musically speaking—through to the printing press, the player piano and phonograph, the radio, the internet, and generative AI. You will have thought through how we set up incentives to make, and to distribute, the music all of us love. How can society ensure that the next great composer or performer devotes her time and talent to that task instead of something else? How can we set up a system that gives creators control of their work, and yet still leaves free the genres, styles, techniques, and other building blocks that make up the musical commons, upon which all artists draw?By the time you finish this book you should be able to have an informed opinion about where we need to strike that balance, and whether the law we have today has done a good job of doing so. You will understand the legal difficulties in clearing samples and in navigating the tangled thicket of music licenses, each invented to deal with a particular technology of the past. You will delve into evolving business models, today’s streaming economy, and the challenges posed by generative AI. But you will also have gone deeper. For example, the book examines the history of attempts to control music in American culture along racial lines: from the legal and social barriers that prevented African-American and other minority musicians from receiving the credit and financial reward their talents deserved, to the vexed question of appropriation and the line between benign mutual cultural influence and unjust, uncredited exploitation. Along the way, you will get to think about the law, culture, aesthetics, and economics of an art form that touches us more profoundly than we know.
