Course Objectives
The course offers the complete picture of European Copyright Law through the analysis of the European directives (12 classes) and the discussion of the European Courts’ decisions (12 classes). Each week the study of a specific aspect of copyright law (for example subject matter, creativity, infringement etc.) will be complemented by the examination of the main decisions that implement that specific aspect.
CopyrightX option: parallel to the European Copyright Law course, students are offered the option to integrate the EU copyright framework with the US perspective by following online the CopyrightX classes provided by Harvard Law School and by reading and discussing (during the 12 classes dedicated to case discussion) also some relevant US decisions.
