N2  - Celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Directive 2001/29/EC on copyright in the information society, this book sheds new light on an important European legal instrument at a crucial stage – not only in the life of the Directive, but indeed for copyright itself.  With a foreword by the ‘architect’ of the Directive, Dr Jörg Reinbothe, the book contains two further stage-setting parts, first on the WIPO Treaties which formed the basis for the Copyright in the Information Society Directive, and then on the Directive itself. The challenges created for regional and national legislators are also explored and identified, as are the complex compromises and varying levels of discretion left to these lawmakers as they performed their legislative tasks. The local nuances and particularities of the implementation of the Directive in each Member State are examined in detail via 27 diverse and compelling narratives.  Combining practical information on implementation of the Directive with the latest academic research, this book will be of great value to policy makers, practising lawyers and researchers alike. The book will be of particular interest to those who are following the legislative debate on copyright in the Digital Single Market as it captures the status quo of copyright protection in member states at a decisive time in this debate.
