Cíle předmětu
The use of protected works and other subject matter protected by copyright is largely governed by the interplay of exclusive rights and copyright exceptions. While exclusive rights enable rightholders to control specific uses, copyright exceptions enable non-rightholders to perform acts that would normally require prior authorization. Digital technologies enable new creative an innovative uses the rely on pre-existing works. However, the legal framework for novel uses is not always clear, which can create chilling effects on innovation and creativity. The course will examine the role exceptions within copyright law from a comparative EU-US perspective. It will introduce students to the systematic differences between the two legal traditions and critically examine copyright exceptions against the background of new creative and innovative uses. The course will pay particular attention to relevant uses in digital environments, such as uses of protected works on online platform and the use of works for the purposes of artificial intelligence systems.
