Critical Acclaim
‘The essays in these volumes are clearly written and of readable length. . . the latest installments in the New Directions series will be of particular use to researchers interested in traditional cultural expressions and trade law but other scholars of copyright and media will find papers to interest them.’
– Daithí Mac Síthigh, Scripted
‘Overall, this is an excellent collection and each contribution is interesting and informative.’
– Louise Buckingham, Copyright Reporter
Acclaim for volume 1:
‘Copyright is increasingly broad in scope and the range of perspectives that can be applied to study it is equally wide – not just IP law but legal philosophy, economics, cultural studies, ethnography, legal history and political science are all potentially relevant approaches to dissecting the copyright octopus. This book includes examples of all these approaches. It makes fascinating reading. It is also a valuable contribution to the current debate about the future development of copyright law.’
