A Framework for Harmonisation -- Index 000027463 520__ $$aThis insightful study explores the constitutional, institutional, and cultural barriers to harmonisation of the copyright laws of the United States and the European Union. It considers these matters in the real world transnational environment in which copyright law operates and suggests that the reality transcends the differences, offering a framework for meaningful harmonisation. The authors examine in detail and offer a critique of the sporadic and historic attempts at one or another form of harmonisation, via treaty and otherwise, from the creation of a minimal standards regime to the proliferation of substantive treaties. They similarly examine the respective competencies of the US and the EU to adopt a transnational regime, and propose a workable framework consistent with these competencies. Offering a critical analysis of treaties and other prior attempts at forms of harmonization, this book will have special appeal to governmental and nongovernmental individuals involved in the ongoing efforts of WIPO and the WTO, as well as copyright and intellectual property practitioners with internationally oriented practices. 000027463 650_0 $$aLaw$$xInternational unification. 000027463 650_0 $$aIntellectual property$$zEurope. 000027463 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zEurope. 000027463 650_4 $$aCopyright 000027463 650_4 $$aCopyright law 000027463 650_6 $$aDroit d'auteur$$zÉtats-Unis. 000027463 651_0 $$aEurope$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027463 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000027463 85641 $$uhttps://www.elgaronline.com/display/9781782544180.xml$$yView eBook 000027463 942__ $$2ddc$$cMON 000027463 952__ $$w2015-02-03$$p2015-0007$$r150.00$$u41965$$bMAIN$$10$$kN 341 HAL.H$$v2015-02-03$$zTagged$$71 000027463 980__ $$aBIB 000027463 999__ $$c29899$$d29899
