"As one of the most flexible of the intellectual property rights, copyright law is under constant pressure to adapt and expand in the face of new and sometimes unforeseen challenges and developments. This book is the first in an important new six volume series whose aim is to consider the purpose, role, function and future of the copyright system. The book, and indeed the series, comprises thoughtful, critical and often challenging contributions from an international, multidisciplinary network of scholars. It brings together perspectives on copyright from law, politics, economics, cultural studies and social theory in an effort to forge a truly coherent and meaningful agenda for the future of copyright."--BOOK JACKET.

Industry Reviews
'. . . this is a lovely collection of papers. . . even some of the chapters that are copyright-specific have plenty of thoughts, ideas and analytical method that can be exported to other IP rights. Don't wait till Christmas - buy this book now!' -- IPkat.com
'This collection of essays is broadly concerned with developments in digital technologies and the concomitant evolution of copyright law. Part I provides the theoretical framework of copyright law, while Part II deals with "Globalisation, Convergence and Divergence". The essays vary widely in terms of subject matter and quality, but all are critical of existing copyright regimes. Most are enjoyable and provocative partly because of that.' -- Louise Buckingham, Copyright Reporter
'Copyright is increasingly broad in scope and the range of perspectives that can be applied to study it is equally wide - not just IP law but legal philosophy, economics, cultural studies, ethnography, legal history and political science are all potentially relevant approaches to dissecting the copyright octopus. This book includes examples of all these approaches. It makes fascinating reading. It is also a valuable contribution to the current debate about the future development of copyright law.' -- Simon Stokes, European Intellectual Property Review
