Engaging and innovative, User Generated Law offers a new
perspective on the study of intellectual property law. Shifting
research away from the study of statutory law, contributions from
leading scholars explore why and how self-regulation of
intellectual property rights in a knowledge society emerges and
develops. Analyzing examples of self-regulation in the intellectual
property law-based industries such as collective management of
copyrights and patent rights, open source licenses, domain name law
and enforcement of intellectual property rights, this book
evaluates to what extent user generated law is an accurate model
for explaining and understanding this process. It also considers
its interaction with the framework conditions of the statutory law
upon which it is built and the subsequent redefinition of legal
positions for affected parties. With its original stance on
understanding and construing intellectual property law, User
Generated Law will appeal to students and scholars studying in this
area as well as in legal governance and legal theory. Its
evaluative approach also lends itself to policy makers and
practitioners. Contributors include: O. Kokoulina, B. Lundqvist,

This book addresses the growing importance of trade secrets in
today's society and business and the related increase in
litigation, media and scholarly attention. Written by a team of
international experts, it uses the new EU Trade Secrets Directive
as a prism through which to discuss the complex legal issues
involved. Featuring both EU and wider international perspectives,
chapters examine the Directive's aim of harmonizing legislation on
the protection of trade secrets across the EU, and discuss how this
has been implemented by member states. Contributors also explore
the effects of the new regime on contentious issues and crucial
sectors such as medicine, big data and AI, as well as considering
its relationship with US law in particular. Scholars and students
of patent law, innovation, and EU law and governance, particularly
those with an interest in the topic of information freedom, will
find this book of great significance in their research.
Practitioners working in trade secrets and intellectual property
more broadly will also find this book's comprehensive analysis of
the Directive and its practical implications invaluable.

The Constitutional Documents ofDenmark , Norway and Sweden is
published as volume six of the Europe Part of the series
Constitutions of the World from the late 18th Century to the Middle
of the 19th Century. This volume contains 32 of the most important
constitutional documents from these three countries. The historian
Thomas Riis has edited the three Danish constitutional texts from
the period 1831 to 1849 included in this volume: the "Anordning
angaaende Provindsial-Staenders indforelse i Danmark" (1831), the
"Verfassungsentwurf fur Danemark, Schleswig und Holstein" (1848)
and "Danmarks Riges Grundlov" (1849). A total of six constitutional
documents were published in Norway during the relevant period, and
each has been edited and annotated here by the jurist Dag Michalsen
. Central to these documents are the two constitutions called
"Kongeriget Norges Grundlov" from the year 1814 and the "Rigs-Act"
of 1815, which have been edited along with their corresponding
amendments. The Swedish section of the volume is edited by Magnus
Isberg , research assistant at the Swedish parliament, and contains
six constitutional texts; namely, the "Regerings-Form" of 1809, the
"Riksdags-Ordning" of 1810, and both the first and second
"Successions-Ordning" (1809/10) and "Tryckfrihets-Foerordning"
(1810/12), as well as the corresponding amendments to all of them
up to 1844.

In Rethinking American Music, Tara Browner and Thomas L. Riis
curate essays that offer an eclectic survey of current music
scholarship. Ranging from Tin Pan Alley to Thelonious Monk to hip
hop, the contributors go beyond repertory and biography to explore
four critical yet overlooked areas: the impact of performance;
patronage's role in creating music and finding a place to play it;
personal identity; and the ways cultural and ethnographic
circumstances determine the music that emerges from the creative
process. Many of the articles also look at how a piece of music
becomes initially popular and then exerts a lasting influence in
the larger global culture. The result is an insightful
state-of-the-field examination that doubles as an engaging short
course on our complex, multifaceted musical heritage. Contributors:
