The WIPO Treaties on Copyright

Written by two leading experts in copyright law, both closely involved in the evolution of the treaties and their implementation into national and EU law, this work is the definitive guide to key intellectual property treaties.

Zusatztext In this thorough, detailed, and sophisticated treatise on the international law of copyright, the authors provide another timely, long-awaited and rare guide to international treaties on copyright. Over a decade has passed since the publication of the first edition and the new edition is again an illuminating source on the global copyright regime. Many treat landmark texts as the definitive treatise on some sort of discipline. For international copyright, we have Jörg Reinbothe and Silke von Lewinski. The WIPO Treaties on Copyright is a model book...a study that should serve as a torch in the ongoing search of scholars and policy-makers to find the right definitional boundaries of global copyright norms.
