Digital piracy cultures and peer-to-peer technologies combined to
spark transformations in audio-visual distribution between the late
1990s and the mid-2000s. Digital piracy also inspired the creation
of a global anti-piracy law and policy regime, and
counter-movements such as the Swedish and German Pirate Parties.
These trends provide starting points for a wide-ranging debate
about the prospects for deep and lasting changes in social life
enabled by piratical technology practices. This edited volume
brings together contemporary scholarship in communication and media
studies, addressing piracy as a recombinant feature of popular
communication, technological innovation, and communication law and
policy. An international collection of contributors highlights key
debates about piracy, popular communication, and social change, and
provides a lasting resource for global media studies. This book was
originally published as a special issue of Popular Communication.
