This course provides an in depth examination of copyright law. It seeks to develop students' knowledge of the nature and significance of copyright (including moral rights) in Australia, and compare Australian law with that in jurisdictions including the UK/Europe, the US and Canada. It will pose normative questions about the appropriate scope of copyright protection.

It is assumed that students are familiar with basic principles of contract and property law. 

Mr Ben Gardiner
