Pruning The European Intellectual Property Tree - In Search Of Common Principles And Roots, Severine Dusollier
Pruning The European Intellectual Property Tree - In Search Of Common Principles And Roots, Severine Dusollier
Severine Dusollier
The European Union knows a multiplicity of IP rights, from classical ones (copyright, patent, trademark or design) to more marginal ones, in terms of economic sectors concerned (rights in database, in plant varieties, in semiconductors, in geographical indications). This paper aims at identifying and assessing the existing similarities or common principles in the intellectual property rights in the European Union. Despite their apparent diverging functions, subject matter and scope of protection, copyright, trademark, patent and the other intellectual property rights share at least the fact that they belong to a set of rules granting some exclusive rights in intangible assets, …
Drm At The Intersection Of Copyright Law And Technology : A Case Study For Regulation, Severine Dusollier
Drm At The Intersection Of Copyright Law And Technology : A Case Study For Regulation, Severine Dusollier
Severine Dusollier
Digital Rights Management, that have been deployed to enforce copyright, present an interesting case study for regulation. DRM, as a technology, has significant effects on copyright regulation. When applied to limiting access or controlling the use of some works, and reinforced by anti-circumvention provisions, a DRM system acts as a technical norm regulating the very use of a copyrighted work, as copyright regulation does. But the normative effect of DRM technologies is rather different in terms of content and in terms of nature. Mere access to and use of works are now under control, whereas copyright is traditionally limited to …
(Re)Introducing Formalities In Copyright : Towards More Open Content?, Severine Dusollier
(Re)Introducing Formalities In Copyright : Towards More Open Content?, Severine Dusollier
Severine Dusollier
Many voices have been recently heard in favor of the reintroduction of formalities in copyright law, in order to counteract the rapid expansion of copyright protection and the ensuing diminishing of the public domain. Formalities have been considered as a way to limit the automatic granting of copyright, to shorten its duration or to make its enforcement less easy. This paper examines the relevance of a possible reintroduction of formalities for the enhancement and safeguarding of the public domain. It first considers the formalities the introduction of which (or reintroduction in some countries) has been proposed, under two lenses: their …

Draw Me A Public Domain, Severine Dusollier, Valérie-Laure Benabou
Draw Me A Public Domain, Severine Dusollier, Valérie-Laure Benabou
Severine Dusollier
Copyright is forged from pieces of land taken from the public domain. Absence of any restrictions on the products of the mind and of creation is the rule while intellectual property is the exception. Yet intellectual property has constantly expanded over the realm of the public domain. The on-going commodification of the latter has been regularly denounced in scholarship. This article aims at sketching a regime for the public domain that would contain some rules through which it could resist encroachment by private property. It starts from the analysis that the current perception and regime of the public domain in …

Sharing Access To Intellectual Property Through Private Ordering, Severine Dusollier
Sharing Access To Intellectual Property Through Private Ordering, Severine Dusollier
Severine Dusollier
Property and exclusivity are at the core of the intellectual rights. Traditionnally, copyright or patent rights are seen as tools to exclude others. Oddly enough, copyright and patent holders have started to engage in non-exclusionary practices through open access, open source or open licensing schemes. By using exclusivity not to exclude others but to include them, to share and socialize intellectual property, by giving rights to use, reproduce, modify and distribute works or inventions, those mechanisms reverse the traditional narrative of intellectual property and introduce commons features within the exercise of the right itself. Interestingly, such licensing schemes are based …
