      title = {Intellectual Property and Traditional Cultural Expressions  in a Digital Environment},
      abstract = {In the face of increasing globalisation, and a collision  between global communication systems and local traditions,  this book offers innovative trans-disciplinary analyses of  the value of traditional cultural expressions (TCE) and  suggests appropriate protection mechanisms for them. It  combines approaches from history, philosophy, anthropology,  sociology and law, and charts previously untravelled paths  for developing new policy tools and legal designs that go  beyond conventional copyright models. Its authors extend  their reflections to a consideration of the specific  features of the digital environment, which, despite  enhancing the risks of misappropriation of traditional  knowledge and creativity, may equally offer new  opportunities for revitalising indigenous peoples’ values  and provide for the sustainability of TCE.  This book will  appeal to scholars interested in multidisciplinary analyses  of the fragmentation of international law in the field of  intellectual property and traditional cultural expressions.  It will also be valuable reading for those working on  broader governance and human rights issues.},
