Those Who Claim That Significant Copyright-Related Benefits Flow from Greater International Uniformity of Terms Point to T
Issue 5 - October 2015 Dear Colleagues, It is with great pleasure that we are presenting the fifth issue of this Newsletter, the purpose of which is to provide a platform for the exchange of experiences and ideas among staffers of the European Parliament and the Congress in the area of legal affairs. The main purpose of this issue is to introduce the Members of the Legal Affairs Committee of the European Parliament (JURI) who will be visiting Washington, DC on November 3-6, 2015, as announced in the the last newsletter from July 2015. An ambitious programme of meetings has been set up with the purpose of discussing questions relating primarily to Civil Justice, Private International Law and Intellectual Property Rights, with both public counterparts and private stakeholders. This newsletter will also include brief background descriptions in view of the meetings that the Committee delegation will hold in Congress, with the US Administration and the Supreme Court, as well as with civil society and industry. The week of the visit will be a busy one indeed for the European Parliament in the US capital, with close to 40 MEPs visiting at the same time. In addition to the Members from JURI, the Constitutional Affairs Committee (AFCO) and Parliament's Standing Delegation for relations with the US will also have Members visiting with official missions, the latter for an interparliamentary meeting (IPM) in the context of the Transatlantic Legislative Dialogue (TLD). Political groups from Parliament and individual Members are also visiting Washington next week with their own agendas and meeting programmes. -

Piraattipuolueen Ja Piraattinuorten Tiedotuslehti
Piraattipuolueen ja piraattinuorten tiedotuslehti 1/2014 Purje 1 Puheenjohtaja Sisällys Valvonta- ja urkintaskandaalit tuovat yhä uudes- taan esiin globaalin tietoyhteiskunnan uhat. Järjes- telmässä on haavoittuvuuksia, joita käytetään kaiken aikaa hyväksi. On hyvä, että erilaiset paljastukset valtioiden harjoit- tamasta urkinnasta nostavat voimakkaan vastustus- reaktion kansalaisissa, mutta julkinen keskustelu lähtee yleensä heti alussa väärille raiteille. Puhu- taan diplomaattisista suhteista ja maailman valta- politiikasta: keskustelua käydään puhtaasti 1900- luvun konseptein. Olennaista olisi keskustella tietoverkkojen raken- teesta, koodista, rajapinnoista: tämä on keskustelu jota tällä hetkellä käydään vain hyvin rajallisesti asiantuntijapiireissä. Tällöin jää ymmärtämättä, Harri Kivistö on Piraattipuolueen puheenjohtaja ja puolueenperus- ajajäsen.

Ne sisältävät aivan keskeisiä arvovalintoja. Jos näitä valintoja ei tehdä politii- kassa avoimesti, ne tehdään kabineteissa valtaeliitin tai liikemaailman etujen mukaan. Tämän vuoksi Piraattipuoluetta tarvitaan nyt Tästä syystä meidän ei tule pelätä esimerkiksi enemmän kuin koskaan.

April 3, 2020 Director General Francis Gurry World Intellectual Property
April 3, 2020 Director General Francis Gurry World Intellectual Property Organization 34, chemin des Colombettes CH-1211 Geneva 20, Switzerland Dear Dr Gurry, We write to you as organisations and individuals representing researchers, educators, students, and the institutions that support them, to encourage WIPO to take a clear stand in favour of ensuring that intellectual property regimes are a support, and not a hindrance, to efforts to tackle both the Coronavirus outbreak and its consequences. The COVID-19 pandemic has shone a bright light on how important intellectual property limitations and exceptions can be to development and human flourishing. Researchers discovered the spread of the virus through a text and data mining project analyzing copyrighted news articles1, enabled by Canada’s flexible fair dealing right for research purposes. The earliest potential treatments have been developed through existing medicines, enabled by experimental use exceptions to patent rights. Now, schools, universities, libraries, archives, museums and research institutes across the world, forced to close their buildings, are transferring materials online and providing remote access, but only where copyright laws permit. However, these and other critical activities to overcome the crisis are not being performed everywhere - including where subscriptions have been paid in advance - because they are not lawful everywhere. We have seen helpful steps from a number of countries, and from some right holders themselves, to facilitate access to academic articles and other works, educational and cultural materials, research data, chemical libraries, and needed medicines and medical devices that are subject to intellectual property rights. These steps are to be lauded. But much more is needed. -
