Scale-Free Law: Network Science And Copyright, Andres Guadamuz Jan 2008

Scale-Free Law: Network Science And Copyright, Andres Guadamuz

Andres Guadamuz

Networks are everywhere. The staggering complexity and seemingly chaotic nature of everyday life is actually a collection of different networks interacting with us from the moment that we wake up to the time we go to sleep. We are constantly surrounded by the social network, the financial network, the transport network, the telecommunications network, and even the network within our own bodies. The understanding of how these systems operate and interact with one another has been the realm of physicists, economists, biologists and mathematicians. Until recently, the study of networks lacked empirical application because it was extremely difficult to gather …


Civil Jurisdiction, Intellectual Property And The Internet, Sampsung Xiaoxiang Shi, Brian Fitzgerald Jan 2008

Civil Jurisdiction, Intellectual Property And The Internet, Sampsung Xiaoxiang Shi, Brian Fitzgerald

xiaoxiang shi

At the core of the civil litigation system is the notion of jurisdiction. In a narrow sense it refers to whether a court has the authority to hear a case in relation to specific people and activities (subject matter) but in a broader sense it also encompasses what law should be applied (choice of law), whether the court is a suitable court to hear the case (choice of court) and the enforcement of judgements.

The notion of jurisdiction provides a tool for efficiently managing litigation and traditionally has been based upon notions of connection to a particular territory. In the …


Chinese Copyright Law, Peer Production And The Participatory Media Age: An Old Regime In A New World, Sampsung Xiaoxiang Shi Jan 2008

Chinese Copyright Law, Peer Production And The Participatory Media Age: An Old Regime In A New World, Sampsung Xiaoxiang Shi

xiaoxiang shi

When the digital world began moving towards a participatory media age and the networked society became increasingly ‘human’, mass participation in creativity gave rise to changes as to how information, knowledge and culture are produced and consumed. Therefore, especially in China, it is time to consider re-framing the copyright regime to facilitate the new creativity and economic models based on participatory media and conductive creativity, while at the same time managing to avoid the disintegration or devaluation of copyright caused by information technology.

What Is 'Private' Data?, Karen Mccullagh Jan 2008

What Is 'Private' Data?, Karen Mccullagh

Karen McCullagh

The development of a frontier-free Internal Market and of the so-called 'information society' have resulted in an increase in the flow of personal data between EU Member States. To remove potential obstacles to such transfers data protection legislation was introduced. One of the underpinning principles of Directive 95/46/EC is the protection of privacy. Yet, the legislation does not provide a conclusive understanding of the terms ‘privacy’ or ‘private’ data. Rather, privacy protection is to be achieved through the regulation of the conditions under which personal data may be processed. An assessment of whether, 10 years after the enactment of the …


Symbiotic Regulation, Andrew D. Murray Jan 2008

Symbiotic Regulation, Andrew D. Murray

Professor Andrew D Murray

In this paper the author examines the development and design of regulatory structures in Cyberspace. The paper considers and models how all forms of control – including design and market controls, as well as traditional command and control regulation are to be applied within the complex and flexible environment of Cyberspace. Drawing on the work of Cyber-regulatory theorists such as Yochai Benkler, Joel Reidenberg and Lawrence Lessig and matching it with an examination of social ordering from the English Peasant’s Revolt to the more modern theories of Jurgen Habermas and Nicklaus Luhmann this paper suggests a model of Cyber-regulation which …
