Description

Product Description The present state of copyright law and the way in which it threatens the remix of culture and creativity is a shared concern of the contributors to this unique book. Whether or not to remain within the underlying regime of intellectual property law, and what sort of reforms are needed if we do decide to remain within this regime, are fundamental questions that form the subtext for their discussions. One opinion that manifests itself in the book is that we should not reject present copyright law altogether, but rather find ways to fit it to the new digital technology, whilst others take a more sceptical view. They argue, for example, that the solution to copyright-related problems is simply to give up on copyright law altogether. The life and work of Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen presents an ideal focus and/or point of departure, giving the contributors a historical and well defined framework for their discussion of the various problems in relating copyright to cultural creativity. Copyright and Other Fairy Tales will be of great interest to scholars of intellectual property from a diversity of fields including law, economics, and cultural studies, as well as historians interested in the link between cultural creativity and the role of copyright in promoting (or preventing) such creativity. Review 'This collection of essays is a stimulating, topical, informative and thoroughly enjoyable read, and comes highly recommended by the reviewer.' -- Maureen O'Sullivan, Script-ed'The essays are provocative. They argue that the integrity of the artistic work and the "protection of traditional cultural creativity" must be protected, yet one must recognize the enormous value (and creativity) of Hans Christen Andersen's "transformative use of the cultural commons." Many creators other than Andersen - from Dickens to Australian Aboriginal peoples - fill these pages: accordingly, this volume will stretch the mind. Highly recommended.'
