This course is the second course of the Master's Programme in European Intellectual Property Law. The course aims to provide insights into, among other things, the emergence of new copyright works, the scope of copyright protection in the digital society, infringement, and the choice of law and jurisdiction in case of infringement especially online. Furthermore, alternative or additional means of protection such as contracts and so-called technological protection measures, as well as traditional and modern copyright limitations, are addressed. The cross-border mobility of legal objects and their accessibility via the internet justify special consideration of the rules and methods of private international law when analysing copyright issues.
