Coinciding with my Susan Barker appointment to the position What impressed me most of Editor of the Review was the hiring of a brand new management team; together, we have been learning ... is that it reinforced how the ropes. One decision that we made early on was to take enough time to ensure that we were all conversant quietly authoritative this with the processes involved with publishing the Review. So, rather than rushing out an issue in August when organization is and has been we were not completely equipped to do, we decided to publish a double issue in November instead.

Fruehwald: Copyright Infringement of Musical Compositions COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT OF MUSICAL COMPOSITIONS: A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH by E. SCoTr FRUEHWALD INTRODUCTION This article addresses the problems that courts face when dealing with copyright infringement of musical compositions. Infringement of music presents special problems for judges and juries because music is an intuitive art that is nonverbal and nonvisual. Consequently, traditional methods of establishing infringement are often unreliable when applied to music. This paper will concentrate on the question of whether a composition that is similar to, but not the same as, another work infringes on the other work.

Executive Summary Canada's Public Domain is at risk, and needs the active protection of the Parliament of Canada. The author of this brief, Dr. Mark Akrigg, makes two major recommendations: 1. A "Safe Harbour" provision for works more than 75 years old where the life dates of the authors are not known. This has long been needed, and will be absolutely essential if copyright terms for photographs are extended, as currently proposed in Bill C-32. 2. No extensions of copyright durations. Specific language is proposed for related amendments to Bill C-32. These amendments are intended to be concise, straightforward, and uncontroversial. 20 January 2011 2 of 7 Protecting and Enhancing Canada's Public Domain A brief to the Legislative Committee on Bill C-32 by Mark Akrigg, founder of Project Gutenberg Canada, (http://gutenberg.ca/) a website distributing free digital editions of books in the Canadian Public Domain.

  • A Legal Framework for Global Joint Copyright Management in Musical Works – Based on Rawls’S Theory of Justice
    A Legal Framework for Global Joint Copyright Management in Musical Works – Based on Rawls’s Theory of Justice by Zhiqin Wu A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (PHD) IN THE LAW SCHOOL, LANCASTER UNIVERSITY, UK (March 2018) © Zhiqin Wu DECLARATION I confirm that the thesis is my own work, that is has not been submitted in substantially the same form for the award of a higher degree elsewhere, and that all quotations have been distinguished and the sources of identification specifically acknowledged. 2 ABSTRACT The present music market has shown an imbalance of interests in terms of economic, social and cultural interests. The present research has found that joint music copyrights management is responsible for this issue. Joint management organisations (JMOs) are competing with each other in an unfair market worldwide due to the lack of harmonised rules to standardize their behaviours. It is imperative to establish a promising international copyright legal framework for regulating their behaviours, providing a fairer and common arena for both CMOs and IMEs, enabling JMOs to fulfil multiple functions so as to strike a real balance of interests between copyright stakeholders in music industry. It would also facilitate the cross-border flow of musical works in the digital era where copyrighted musical works flow across borders easily. The proposed theoretical framework is formulated on the basis of Rawls’s justice theory which provides powerful and systematic explanation and standards to evaluate and design JMOs’ functions. The standard of multi-objective, named economic, social and cultural objectives, is proposed for balancing interests at stake, more precisely, justifying the interests of the least well-off.

  • Algonquin Law on Access and Benefit Sharing Larry Mcdermott and Peigi Wilson
    Exploring the Right to Diversity in Conservation Law, Policy, and Practice ‘Ginawaydaganuk’: Algonquin Law on Access and Benefit Sharing Larry McDermott and Peigi Wilson Abstract Ginawaydaganuk, which is loosely translated as the interconnection of all things, is an Algonquin law outlining our responsibilities to each other and the earth. It is the basis of an 18th-century agreement between the French, the English, and the Algonquin to respect Algonquin law and share the resources of Algonquin territory. Three centuries later, Canada and the other parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity are negotiating a new access and benefit sharing regime, but in doing so, Canada is ignoring its historic and current obligations to the Algonquin and other Indigenous Peoples in Canada. This paper explores the exclusion of Indigenous Peoples in Canada from environmental decision-making, the resulting decline of Indigenous cultures, and the interrelated decline in biological diversity. It argues that reconciling the rights of Indigenous Peoples with State sovereignty in an Access and Benefit Sharing Protocol is an essential means to support the retention of Indigenous cultures and reverse the decline of biological diversity. A new international law on access and benefit sharing (ABS) is currently being negotiated by the 193 Parties to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). The discussion of access to and sharing of benefits from genetic resources and Indigenous knowledge brings into focus conflicting worldviews about the
