LEAD ARTICLE
Copyright, Technology and the Exploitation of Audiovisual Works in the EU
The lead article of this new publication is authored by Lucia Guibault and João Pedro Quintais of the Amsterdam-based Institute for Information Law (IViR). The article focuses on criteria developed by the European Court of Justice (CJEU) to judge whether or not there has been “communication to the public” under the terms of the InfoSoc Directive.
