Beskrivning

Massive quantities of information are required to fuel the innovation process in a knowledge-based economy; a requirement that is in tension with intellectual property (IP) laws. Against this backdrop, leading thinkers in the IP arena explore the 'access challenge' of the 21st century, framed as the tension between the interest in the free flow of information and the fragmentation of knowledge resulting from strong IP laws.In some areas this tension seems to resolve in a shift of IP laws in the direction of greater openness, whether due to new business models, improved legal tools or access-friendly interpretations of existing laws. The book's chapters explore the challenges encountered by this 'opening' process from various perspectives, including:open access to public sector and scientific research dataenhanced use of licensingreshaping the contours of individual IP lawsinclusion of new stakeholders in the IP debatechallenges to the information flow in the international arena.

‘Technical communicators wishing to understand the complexities of intellectual property laws across political boundaries will find this collection of essays valuable. Certainly, this collection deserves a place in the company library for those companies who use intellectual property, but also those interested in international IP law.’
