A great deal has been written on the theoretical aspects of
copyright and the cultural industries but much less on the applied
side - how copyright law works in practice. How do lawyers, firms
and artists manage and administer copyright and what economic and
legal problems does this raise? In recent times in particular,
technological inventions appear to have outpaced the development of
copyright law. This illuminating book addresses these issues and
looks at the serious implications for copyright policy in the
future. Several of the authors question the efficacy of copyright,
which is increasingly regarded as benefiting multinational
organisations rather than individual authors and performers. Others
are less critical of copyright per se, but question its ability to
meet the new challenges of a digital era. Some of the specific
issues covered include: * law and international transactions of
copyrighted material * economic analysis of copyright and freedom
of expression * music licensing in the digital age * the role of
copyright in stimulating cultural development * internet
distribution of copyright material * the problems of licensing
museum images. International in scope and offering views from both
academics and practitioners, this book will interest and inform
economists, lawyers and policymakers alike. Commercial managers and
business analysts involved with copyright would also benefit from
reading this comprehensive yet accessible book.
