More than a source of income and a means of protection for creators, rightholders and the creative and entertainment industries, copyright is also a vehicle for technological advances and economic development. Throughout the European Union, industries with intensive emphasis on intellectual property rights (mainly copyright) generate more than a quarter of employment and more than a third of economic activity. Yet copyright continues to be plagued by problematic attempts to balance the interests of rightholders, the public, consumers, intermediaries, collecting societies, different national legal traditions and other forces, European and global. Although it has met certain challenges – some of those involving new technologies – copyright ‘stretching’ may have reached its limit. This book thus offers a multi-faceted approach to comprehend the ongoing developments in copyright, taking into account politics, policies, the law and what is attainable in the given circumstances. 000041744 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zEuropean Union countries 000041744 650_0 $$aCopyright, International 000041744 85641 $$uhttp://www.kluweriplaw.com/book-toc?title=New%20Developments%20in%20EU%20and%20International%20Copyright%20Law$$yView this resource 000041744 904__ $$aBook 000041744 980__ $$aBIB
