It has been over fifteen years since the EU started harmonising
copyright law. This original Handbook takes stock and questions
what the future of EU copyright should be. What went wrong with the
harmonisation acquis? What did the directives do well? Should
copyright be further harmonised? Each of the 25 recognised
copyright experts from different European countries gives a
critical account of the EU harmonisation carried out on several
aspects of copyright law (subject-matter, originality, duration,
rights, defences etc.), and asks whether further harmonisation is
desirable or not. This way, the Handbook not only gives guidance to
European institutions as to what remains to be done or needs to be
remedied but is also the first overall picture of current and
future EU copyright law. This Handbook will be of great interest to
academics and intellectual property lawyers, as well as general
commercial lawyers, across Europe because it reviews European
directives in the field of copyright and also the relationships
between copyright and other laws. Policymakers will also find much
to interest them in the discussions regarding the future of EU
copyright law and the proposed amendments to the existing legal
framework.
