The Phoenix from Ashes: Moral Rights and the Future of Copyright Law
Observers of the copyright scene have noted a growing malaise at the heart of modern copyright law, leading many to proclaim the imminent “death of copyright.” A transformation of copyright principles is evident throughout the international community – from the difficulties of enforcing copyright norms, to the growing role of copyright in supporting corporate interests – and indeed, the theme of a fundamental threat to established copyright principles unifies diverse interests and jurisdictions at the four corners of the world. This paper agrees that copyright law is in the midst of fundamental change, and that the ultimate consequence of this process is likely to be the death of copyright as we know it. However, it suggests that the transformation of copyright represents an important legal and social opportunity. Far from becoming outmoded, the copyright concept has in fact acquired a new importance in the context of a global society, characterized by the unprecedented international flow of knowledge and the transformation of culture through technology. To respond to these new realities, the current model of copyright should be superseded by a new paradigm – one that reflects the cultural and humanitarian needs of the new millennium. One of the keys to a new approach may be found in the aspect of copyright known as moral rights, an area that is especially relevant to the United States, whose leadership on international copyright issues means that it can no longer afford to ignore this crucial aspect of modern copyright protection.
