Tools and Perspectives in Authors' Rights

The author analyzes some important aspects of authors' rights, especially the relationship with tangible property, the duration of protection, and moral rights. These issues took root in the first decades of the twentieth century and in some cases even long before, but they still attract attention from legislators and jurists today. Neighboring rights, the new paths of the twenty-first century, and the explosion of artificial intelligence have renewed interest in the globalization of this field through the role of intenational conventions.
