Public protests are a vital tool for asserting grievances and creating temporary, yet tangible, communities as the world becomes more democratic and urban in the twenty-first century. While the political and social aspects of protest have been extensively studied, little attention has been paid to the physical spaces in which protests happen. Yet place is a crucial aspect of protests, influencing the dynamics and engagement patterns among participants. In The Design of Protest, Tali Hatuka offers the first extensive discussion of the act of protest as a design: that is, a planned event in a space whose physical geometry and symbolic meaning are used and appropriated by its organizers, who ai...
The focus of Phantom of the baroque Opera is the parallel drawn between the sea piracy of the baroque and renaissance eras and the cyber piracy of the contemporary digital era. International frameworks to deal with sea piracy then and cyber piracy now remain ambiguous for any law enforcement entities to prosecute. Despite heavy resources deployed to combat this menace in the past; in today’s world protection against ‘invasion’ remains a pipe dream.
During the first quarter-century of the Cold War, upholding human rights was rarely a priority in U.S. policy toward Latin America. Seeking to protect U.S. national security, American policymakers quietly cultivated relations with politically ambitious Latin American militaries—a strategy clearly evident in the Ford administration's tacit support of state-sanctioned terror in Argentina following the 1976 military coup d’état. By the mid-1970s, however, the blossoming human rights movement in the United States posed a serious threat to the maintenance of close U.S. ties to anticommunist, right-wing military regimes.The competition between cold warriors and human rights advocates culminat...
Il volume esamina la disciplina italiana in materia di diritti connessi al diritto d'autore con particolare riferimento agli artisti e ai produttori musicali. Vengono soprattutto analizzati i diritti di credito derivanti dalla diffusione in pubblico di musica registrata e dalla c.d. "copia privata", nonché le diverse modalità di gestione degli stessi. In particolare, viene analizzato il mercato della gestione collettiva dei diritti connessi, alla luce della recente liberalizzazione e le collecting societies che operano al suo interno. Pur trattandosi di un testo giuridico, il lavoro ha un taglio semplice e pratico, in modo da costituire uno strumento utile non soltanto ai giuristi ma anche agli operatori del settore.
This significantly revised and updated second edition addresses the rapid development of EU copyright law in relation to the advancement of new technologies, the need for a borderless digital market and the considerable number of EU legal instruments enacted as a result. Taking a comparative approach, the Commentary provides comprehensive coverage and in-depth commentary on each of the EU legal instruments and policies, both from an EU and an international perspective. Alongside full legislative analysis and article-by-article commentary, the Commentary illustrates the underlying basic principles of free movement and non-discrimination and provides insights into the influence of copyright on other areas of EU policy, including telecoms and bilateral trade agreements.
L’opera costituisce una novità nel panorama delle pubblicazioni giuridiche italiane perché, nell’affrontare lo studio sistematico degli istituti di diritto industriale, riporta all’interno di ogni capitolo i pertinenti riferimenti normativi associando l’inquadramento dottrinale e giurisprudenziale al testo del Codice. Sono approfondite le tematiche di diritto sostanziale, procedimentale e processuale che contrassegnano il settore della P.I. con particolare riguardo sia all’apporto giurisprudenziale delle Corti di merito e di legittimità sia agli aspetti di allineamento agli impegni europei ed internazionali che il legislatore ha inteso perseguire e che l’interprete è in ogni ...
