This module examines the law and policy of the copyright system in an international context. Copyright harmonization at EU level will form the basis for comparative analysis of different areas of copyright law, including subject matter, exclusive rights, exceptions and limitations/permitted uses and intermediary/platform liability.
Against the background of EU copyright law, the module will explore certain aspects of national jurisdictions and the interpretation and application of national rules in the light of EU law, including primary EU law and fundamental rights. US copyright will serve to illustrate functional equivalences and different approaches to comply with international copyright agreements.
Students are encouraged to contribute with perspectives from their domestic copyright systems.
For the final assessment, student will focus on an area in which they are particularly interested.
