Moisè Amar e la proprietà intellettuale in Europa tra Otto e Novecento

The author examines the themes that characterize authors' rights in Europe between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which find fertile ground in Amar's work and his advocacy for legislative reform. These themes encompass the duration of exclusive rights, examined across various European countries and comparatively, the evolution of moral rights, notably regarding attribution and integrity of works, and the internationalization of rights through the role of international conventions. All of these aspects resonate significantly in Amar's works, particularly in his more mature production, that shows a willingness to engage in their discussion at both national and international levels. The study unveils a previously unexplored facet of the jurist's intellectual biography, highlighting his collaboration with legislator in the reform of authors' rights.
