Kelemahan Undang-Undang Hak Cipta Dalam Melindungi Ekspresi Budaya Tradisional, Amalia Karunia Putri

"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI

The Indonesian perspective on materiality is concrete that is communal. Laws and regulations relating to the protection of Traditional Knowledge and Traditional Cultural Expressions in Indonesia have not been able to properly support the development of Traditional Knowledge and Traditional Cultural Expressions.
