      abstract = {European Intermediary Liability in Copyright provides a  clarification on the existing rules of the European Union  on the liability of internet intermediaries for third party  copyright infringement. On this basis, it formulates a  plausible model for a potential future further  harmonisation of this complicated area.  In step with its  rapid progress to the centre of modern social, political  and economic life, the internet has proven a convenient  vehicle for the commission of unprecedented levels of  copyright infringement. Given the significant practical  obstacles to the successful pursuit of actual perpetrators,  it has become common for internet intermediaries – the  providers of internet-related infrastructure and services  – to face liability as accessories. Despite advances in  policy at the European level however, the law in this area  remains fragmented between Member States. This is the first  book to take a law-based approach towards exploring the  possible substantive harmonisation of the rules of  intermediary liability at the EU level.  The thesis on  which the book was based won Proxime Accessit in the 2016  European Law Faculties Association Award for Outstanding  Doctoral Theses in European Law.},
