The Uncoordinated Public Domain, Robert Spoo

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

When nations amend their copyright laws in response to calls for international harmonization, they usually expand authors' rights without also seeking to harmonize national public domains. Divergent national copyright laws have resulted in an uncoordinated global public domain that renders authors' works freely available for use in some countries while subjecting them to copyright or moral-rights protection in others. While the fragmented global commons thwarts many valuable uses of cultural resources, it has especially deleterious effects on the ability of researchers to access, copy, and disseminate historical and literary materials, many of which remain unpublished. These effects are mirrored and …

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

DNA is generally regarded as the basic building block of life itself. In the most fundamental sense, DNA is nothing more than a chemical compound, albeit a very complex and peculiar one. DNA is an information-carrying molecule. The specific sequence of base pairs contained in a DNA molecule carries with it genetic information and encodes for the creation of particular proteins. When taken as a whole, the DNA contained in a single human cell is a complete blueprint and instruction manual for the creation of that human being.

This Article discusses a myriad of current and developing ways in which …

Access-To-Error, Michal Shur-Ofry

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

Access to knowledge is a crucial part of the innovation paradigm, and its significance for development and progress is well recognized Conversely, the role of errors, failures, and additional types of negative information in the dynamics of innovation is insufficiently explored in law and policy scholarship. This Article focuses on errors as drivers of innovation, and explores new ways for facilitating access to error.

Drawing on multidisciplinary research-ranging from philosophical accounts of progress through studies of complex systems to accumulating reflections from diverse scientific communities-this Article demonstrates that, counterintuitively, errors and innovation are inextricably linked. Yet, the principal legal, institutional, …

Disciplining The Right Of Publicity's Nebulous First Amendment Defense With Teachings From Trademark Law, Wee Jin Yeo

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

Academic commentators, practitioners and students alike have written a flurry of articles on the First Amendment defense in right of publicity law, as courts cannot seem to agree on the appropriate balancing test that should be used to weigh celebrities 'publicity rights against the public's rights to use celebrity personas as communicative tools. Various tests have been proposed as the panacea, but are ultimately unsatisfactory, due to inadequacies that prevent them from striking a normatively desirable balance.

This Article suggests that the core normative justification behind the right of publicity is the prevention of unjust enrichment. Thus, following recent developments …

Unlock The Music: Replacing Compulsory Music Licenses With Free Market Negotiation, Karen (Kai-Wen) Hsieh

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

To understand the impact that compulsory licenses have on the music industry, Section II of this Note focuses on the three major licenses for music compositions-the mechanical license, the performing rights license, and the sync license. Section III discusses why compulsory licenses no longer benefit the music industry and why free market negotiation is the superior approach. This section will also address the potential problems arising from free market negotiation, such as the power imbalance in negotiations between major record labels and new artists. Finally, Section IV proposes online mediation to remedy the difficulties that may occur due to unrestricted …

Time To Pay College Athletes? Why The O'Bannon Decision Makes Pay-For-Play Ripe For Mediation, Andrew Steckler

Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution

Between the mounting pressure of public opinion, and continuing litigation in which various plaintiffs are seeking to take advantage of the player-friendly language in O'Bannon, the power dynamic in college athletics is shifting back towards the players. The previously uneven playing field is leveling. This Note examines how to inject mediation into the "pay-for-play" debate to better serve the interests of the NCAA, the major conferences (Big 10, SEC, ACC, Big 12, and Pac-12), and the student-athletes in the wake of O'Bannon. While litigation was necessary to start the process, ultimately, it will be up to the NCAA …
