- Abstract
- Examines the basic principles underpinning copyright in the context of the European Commission proposals and reviews the historical background to the growth of copyright and the arguments that continue to be employed by right holders to push for more protection. Illustrates that, to safeguard information access in the digital realm any further, extensions in copyright must be balanced with reciprocal exceptions. Concludes with suggestions for possible future exceptions in the digital domain and suggests that a major concern is that copying may well be forbidden in digital environments without a proper consideration of the relationship between copying, information use and knowledge generation
