Managing Digital Resale In The Era Of International Exhaustion, Seth Niemi Jan 2023

Managing Digital Resale In The Era Of International Exhaustion, Seth Niemi

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

The Copyright Act of 1970 and Directive 2001/29/EC of the European Parliament both guarantee copyright holders’ exclusive rights of reproduction and distribution of their copyrighted material. Starting from a similar statutory basis, United States and European Union courts have diverged in their interpretation of these protections with respect to the first sale rule for digital goods. This paper analyzes the treatment of such “digital exhaustion” arguments under copyright law between the two legal systems from both the statutory interpretations employed and the policy rationales considered. The paper concludes by discussing the implications of adoption of digital exhaustion, within international law, …


Younger Generations Are Infected By Continuous Socialization To Accept Diminished Privacy: A Global Analysis Of How The United States' Constitutional Doctrine Is A Main Contributor To Eroded Privacy, Tiffany Kim Feb 2019

Younger Generations Are Infected By Continuous Socialization To Accept Diminished Privacy: A Global Analysis Of How The United States' Constitutional Doctrine Is A Main Contributor To Eroded Privacy, Tiffany Kim

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

Since the nineteenth century, privacy concerns have increased with the growth of technology. The invention of instantaneous photography, coupled with the enlarged presence of press, was met with concerns of degraded privacy.

Individual privacy expectations vary globally. The construction of China's government and culture produces a lesser expectation of individual privacy than that of the United States. As outlined in the U.S. Constitution, U.S. citizens …


Surrogacy And Citizenship: A Conjunctive Solution To A Global Problem, Caitlin Pyrce Jul 2016

Surrogacy And Citizenship: A Conjunctive Solution To A Global Problem, Caitlin Pyrce

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

People around the world are turning to surrogacy when they are unable to conceive by traditional means. When surrogacy turns traditional notions of parentage upside down, however, countries struggle to find efficient regulations that protect their own citizens, while still recognizing the increasingly global nature of modern society. Children born through surrogacy arrangements between Thai surrogate mothers and Australian intended parents have been confronted with the consequences of inadequate regulation. This note argues that in addition to revising surrogacy legislation to reflect the increasingly transient nature of society, countries must make mirror citizenship reform so children born through surrogacy are …


Expanding Horizons: Scientific Frontiers, Legal Regulation And Globalization, Belinda Bennett Jul 2012

Expanding Horizons: Scientific Frontiers, Legal Regulation And Globalization, Belinda Bennett

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

In the six decades since the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953, developments in genetic science have transformed our understanding of human health and disease. These developments, along with those in other areas such as computer science, biotechnology, and nanotechnology, have opened exciting new possibilities for the future. In addition, the increasing trend for technologies to converge and build upon each other potentially increases the pace of change, constantly expanding the boundaries of the scientific frontier. At the same time, however, scientific advances are often accompanied by public unease over the potential …
