Many writers dream of having their work published by a respected
publishing house, but don't always understand publishing contract
terms - what they mean for the contracting parties and how they
inform book-publishing practice. In turn, publishers struggle to
satisfy authors' creative expectations against the industry's
commercial demands. This book challenges our perceptions of these
author-publisher power imbalances by recasting the publishing
contract as a cultural artefact capable of adapting to the
industry's changing landscape. Based on a three-year study of
publishing negotiations, Katherine Day reveals how relational
contract theory provides possibilities for future negotiations in
what she describes as a 'post negotiation space'. Drawing on the
disciplines of cultural studies, law, publishing studies and
cultural sociology, this book reveals a unique perspective from
publishing professionals and authors within the post negotiation
space, presenting the editor as a fundamental agent in the
formation and application of publishing's contractual terms.
