Description

Explore the profound shifts in media distribution through this academic volume from Routledge. Between the late 1990s and mid-2000s, digital piracy cultures and peer-to-peer technologies triggered massive transformations in how audio-visual content is shared and consumed. This book examines how these technological practices led to the development of global anti-piracy laws and policy regimes. Beyond legal frameworks, the text looks at the rise of political counter-movements, such as the Swedish and German Pirate Parties. By bringing together contemporary scholarship in communication and media studies, this edited volume provides a platform for debate regarding the long-term changes in social life driven by piratical technology. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the intersection of technology, law, and social structure.
