商品簡介
This book is a commercial edition of the author's doctoral thesis written at the Institute for Information Law at the University of Amsterdam. The book offers a detailed analysis of the national and international history, rationale, and possible future of copyright formalities in the digital age. Although the book examines whether the reintroduction of copyright formalities is legally possible, it does not propose a plan for implementing them. The book begins by describing the challenges facing copyright in the digital era, then demonstrates that formalities can play a useful role in addressing the challenges that copyright faces. Some areas investigated include the role and functions of formalities in intellectual property law, the prohibition of formalities in international copyright law, and revitalizing the legal-theoretical concerns with copyright formalities.
