The Evolution Of Copyright Law In The Arts, Kevin Liftig Dec 2009

The Evolution Of Copyright Law In The Arts, Kevin Liftig

Honors Scholar Theses

As digital storage of intellectual goods such as literature and music has become widespread, the duplication and unlicensed distribution of these goods has become a frequent source of legal contention. When technology for production and replication of intellectual goods advanced, there were disputes concerning the rights to produce and duplicate these works. As new technologies have made copies of intellectual goods more accessible, legal institutions have largely moved to protect the rights of ownership of ideas through copyright laws. This paper will examine key changes in the technology that affect intellectual property, and the responses that legal institutions have made …

Reproductive Freedom: Striking A Fair Balance Between Copyright And Other Intellectual Property Protections In Cartoon Characters, Laurie Richter Jan 2009

Reproductive Freedom: Striking A Fair Balance Between Copyright And Other Intellectual Property Protections In Cartoon Characters, Laurie Richter

St. Thomas Law Review

The purpose of this article is to express the reasons why copyright statutes should be overhauled to provide explicit rights reserved to the public, as opposed to the present structure of copyright law, which provides rights to a copyright owner, subject to the many exceptions that have sprung up over the past few years. Some of these exceptions, which seem to have engulfed the basic premise of copyright theory, are the broadly framed but vague protections offered by the fair use doctrine. These rights include the right of a lawful owner of a copy to sell or otherwise dispose of …

Debunking Blackstonian Copyright, Shyamkrishna Balganesh Jan 2009

Debunking Blackstonian Copyright, Shyamkrishna Balganesh

Faculty Scholarship

More than two decades ago, in attempting to make sense of the structural dissonance between copyright and free expression, the U.S. Supreme Court famously declared that copyright was intended to be “the engine of free expression.” Ironically, this characterization was at the time intended as little more than a rhetorical device. In that very case, the Court proceeded immediately thereafter to analyze copyright as a “marketable” property right and conclude that absent a showing of market failure, neither fair use nor the First Amendment would preclude a finding of infringement. Instead of injecting a new set of values into copyright …

Biodiversity, Traditional Knowledge And Folklore: Work On Related Ip Matters In The Wto, Hannu Wager

Intercultural Human Rights Law Review

Issues related to biodiversity, traditional knowledge and folklore have received increasing attention in the global intellectual property (IP) arena, including in the work of intergovernmental organizations and civil society. The World Trade Organization (WTO) is one of the forums in which the debate on related IP matters is occurring. Other intergovernmental organizations in which such debates are taking place include, among others, the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the World Bank, and various United Nations human rights bodies.

Sampling: Musical Authorship Out Of Tune With The Purpose Of The Copyright Regime, Rahmiel D. Rothenberg Jan 2008

Sampling: Musical Authorship Out Of Tune With The Purpose Of The Copyright Regime, Rahmiel D. Rothenberg

St. Thomas Law Review

While the present debate over the practice of sampling may seem to be just a minuscule footnote in the evolution of copyright law, the legal battle that sampling is presently engaged in illuminates many of the future, and ongoing, issues that copyright law faces. One of those major issues is whether copyright law embraces the true nature of creation and authorship. An individual's view on the nature of authorship essentially frames his or her opinion on the legitimacy of creative forms built upon appropriation, such as sampling. This article asserts that there are two legitimate forms of authorship: romantic and …
