Giovanni Ramello (giovannibattista.ramello@unito.it)

Chapter 7 in Developments in the Economics of Copyright, 2005 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This innovative and insightful book, written by some of the leading academics in the field, advances research frontiers on intellectual property and copyright issues. Topics addressed include: peer-to-peer music file sharing, optimal fair use standards, the benefits of copyright collectives, copyright and market entry, alternatives to copyright, the impact of copyright on knowledge production, the proper balance between copyright and competition law, and the application of systematic principles to issues that arise at the periphery of intellectual property law – all with an eye toward economics.
