The Routledge Companion to Copyright and Creativity in the 21st Century
By Michelle Bogre, Nancy Wolff
These collected chapters and interviews explore the current issues and debates about how copyright will or should adapt to meet the practices of 21st century creators and internet users.
The book begins with an overview of copyright law basics. It is organized by parts that correspond to creative genres: Literary Works; Visual Arts; Fine Art; Music; Video Games and Virtual Worlds; Fashion; and Technology. The chapters and interviews address issues such as: copyright ownership in work created by AI; the musical remix market; is appropriation ever a fair use of a copyrighted work, or is it theft?; and should internet-based platforms do more to deter piracy of creators’ works? Each part ends with an essay explaining the significance of one or two landmark or trend setting cases to help the reader understand the practical implications of the law.
Written to be accessible to both lay and legal audiences, this unique collection, addresses contemporary legal issues that all creators need to understand and will be essential reading to artists, designers and musicians, as well as lawyers who represent them.
