These collected chapters and interviews explore the current issues and debates about how copyright will or should adapt to meet the practices of 21st-century creators and internet users.

The book begins with an overview of copyright law basics. It is organized by parts that correspond to creative genres: Literary Works, Visual Arts, Fine Art, Music, Video Games and Virtual Worlds, Fashion, and Technology. The chapters and interviews address issues such as copyright ownership in work created by Artificial Intelligence (AI), the musical remix market, whether appropriation is ever a fair use of a copyrighted work or if it is always theft, and whether internet- based platforms should do more to deter piracy of creators’ works. Each part ends with an essay explaining the significance of one or two landmark or trendsetting cases to help the reader understand the practical implications of the law.

Written to be accessible to both lay and legal audiences, this unique collection addresses contemporary legal issues that all creators need to understand and will be essential reading for artists, designers, and musicians as well as the lawyers who represent them.

Reviews for The Routledge Companion to Copyright and Creativity in the 21st Century

A helpful guide for lawyers and creators in all sectors of arts and entertainment, this collection assembles contributions from many of the leading figures in law practice and academia. The book offers a useful summary of copyright basics, then explores particular fields through a general introduction, contributor essays, and a landmark case illustrating the application of copyright norms to a dispute of legal and human interest. The concluding chapter forecasts future treatment of the key legal issues explored in this volume. Jane C. Ginsburg, Morton L.
