Lappeenranta University of Technology ISBN 978-952-214-655-7, ISSN 1456-4491 This dissertation analyses the growing pool of copyrighted works, which are offered to the public using Creative Commons licensing. The study consist of analysis of the novel licensing system, the licensors, and the changes of the “all rights reserved” –paradigm of copyright law. Copyright law reserves all rights to the creator until seventy years have passed since her demise. Many claim that this endangers communal interests. Quite often the creators are willing to release some rights. This, however, is very difficult to do and needs help of specialized lawyers. The study finds that the innovative Creative Commons licensing scheme is well suited for low value - high volume licensing. It helps to reduce transaction costs on several le- vels. However, CC licensing is not a “silver bullet”. Privacy, moral rights, the problems of license interpretation and license compatibility with other open licenses and collecting societies remain unsolved. The study consists of seven chapters. The first chapter introduces the research topic and research questions. The second and third chapters inspect the Creative Commons licensing scheme’s technical, economic and legal aspects. The fourth and fifth chapters examine the incentives of the licensors who use open licenses and describe certain open business models. The sixth chapter studies the role of collecting societies and whether two institutions, Creative Commons and collecting societies can coexist. The final chapter summarizes the findings. The dissertation contributes to the existing literature in several ways. There is a wide range of prior research on open source licensing. However, there is an urgent need for an extensive study of the Creative Commons licensing and its actual and potential impact on the creative ecosystem. Keywords: copyright, Creative Commons, open content, commons, licensing UDC 347.78: 004.738.5 Foreword The expertise in this dissertation has accumulated through several university re- search projects and by counseling the clients of Turre Legal law firm in the legal and business challenges of open licensing. First I want to thank Jukka Kemppinen for the long and seemingly off topic conversations which connected later on for a so much bigger picture. Marko Turpeinen, Ken Rimey and Martti Mäntylä; thank you for trusting that my research had relevance with all the engineering work and Matti Niemi and Seppo Villa for providing me support at Lappeenran- ta University of Technology. Big thanks go to Raimo Siltala for helping me find the connecting factor and a method for the dissertation and Brian Fitzgerald for coming to Finland in the middle of our dark and cold winter to be my opponent. I have had chance to work with some of the brightest people in the open con- tent field. Mikko Välimäki and Ville Oksanen have made me realistically think about the licensing when we have advised our clients. I must also thank people who have commented the work on the way: Katri Lietsala, Niklas Vainio, Olli Pitkänen, Perttu Virtanen and especially Jussi Kari who bravely went through my footnotes and helped me to build the list of references. I would like to especially thank Mia Garlick for the fruitful discussion we had and the CC staff for giving me a chance to see the insides of the open content revolution while working with the Creative Commons headquarters as a research scholar. Liikesivistysrahasto and its Kaarnalahti fund, Finnish Cultural Foundation, Jenni & Antti Wihuri’s foundation, Oskar Öflund’s foundation and the Sonera’s research foundation have all given me financial support for my research. I am deeply grateful for it. The outside funding meant that I have did not had to worry about the high cost of living in the Silicon Valley. The biggest thanks go to my wife Riikka who has tolerated long days that were necessary to finish the work. Someone said that PhD dissertations are done for three reasons: To make the world a better place, to solve problems, or to get it over with. I hope that my work creates more understanding of the subject and helps to provide the next generation a future where collaboration is easy. For this reason the dissertation is dedicated to my children Alvar and Aamu.

Open licenses, such as those developed by our longtime grantee Creative Commons, protect authors’ rights while giving explicit permission to others to freely use, distribute, and build upon their work. The benefits of open licensing are clear: open licensing increases the chances that good ideas will get a hearing, that others will be able to do something with them, and ultimately that they will have their greatest impact.

  • Beyond Authorship Refiguring Rights in Traditional Culture and Bioknowledge
    Beyond Authorship Refiguring Rights in Traditional Culture and Bioknowledge Martha Woodmansee and Peter Jaszi An “author” in the modern sense is the creator of unique literary, or artistic, “works” the originality of which warrants their protection under laws of intellectual property -- Anglo American “copyright” and European “authors’ rights.” This notion is so firmly established that it persists and flourishes even in the face of contrary experience. Experience tells us that our creative practices are largely derivative, generally collective, and increasingly corporate and collaborative. Yet we nevertheless tend to think of genuine authorship as solitary and originary. This individualistic construction of authorship is a relatively recent invention, the result of a radical reconceptualization of the creative process that culminated less than two centuries ago in the heroic self-presentation of Romantic poets. In the view of poets from Herder and Goethe to Wordsworth and Coleridge genuine authorship is originary in the sense that it results not in a variation, an imitation, or an adaptation, and certainly not in a mere reproduction, but in a new, unique -- in a word, “original” -- work which, accordingly, may be said to be the property of its creator and to merit the law’s protection as such.1 With its emphasis on originality and self-declaring creative genius, this notion of authorship has functioned to marginalize or deny the work of many creative people: women, non-Europeans, artists working in traditional forms and genres, and individuals engaged in group or collaborative projects, to name but a few. Exposure of these exclusions -- the recovery of marginalized creators and underappreciated forms of creative production -- has been a central occupation of cultural studies for several 1 See Martha Woodmansee, “The Genius and the Copyright: Economic and Legal Conditions of the Emergence of the ‘Author’”; rpt.
