A Philosophy of Intellectual Property

Routledge (1996)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

This book argues that intellectual property rights are duty-bearing privileges. Drawing on the work of, amongst others, Grotius, Locke and Hegel, as well as the law of several countries, the book argues that the use of these privileges should be guided by an instrumentalism based on a principle of humanism.
