Preferred term

doctrinal issues in intellectual property  

Definition

  • Digital technologies, over the past several decades, have spurred a heightened general interest in intellectual property (IP). Previously something of an arcane backwater in the law, preoccupying technologically savvy nerds on the patent side and specialists in the publishing and film industries on the copyright side, IP is now fully in the law's mainstream.
