Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Public Domain and Democracy: A Study of Social, Economic and Political Problems in the United States in Relation to Western Development It is common knowledge that its settlement and development have had tremendous influences in national life. The history of the whole country is bound up in the rapid extension of her borders and the remarkable expansion of her population. But in large movements one may lose sight of others developing at the same time. To reverse a wellknown saying: "We see so much of the forest that we fail to see the trees." Social developments and social movements have been taking place the significance of which, because of other great national affairs more evident and appreciable, is not yet fully perceived. The importance of population movements in the United States and the occupation of the Public Domain rests in the fact that they have created a condition of successive change; of social unstability; of social, economic and political restlessness; and have carried with them peculiarly vital developments in various phases of American life. No population removal of history, perhaps, has been accompanied by any more marked social phenomena than that beginning in America at the close of the Revolutionary War and continuing to the present. No movement within the range of modern times has been fraught with greater import than has this one which transplanted a portion of the roots of a vigorous people on a restricted sea-board to the wilds of a frontier which shortly teemed with life and civilization.

This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of a robust public domain is an essential precondition for cultural, social and economic development and for a healthy democratic process. But the public domain is under pressure as a result of the ongoing march towards an information economy. Items of information, which in the `old economy had little or no economic value, such as factual data, personal data, genetic information and pure ideas, have acquired independent economic value in the current information age, and consequently become the object of property rights making the information a tradable commodity. How and to what extent does the commodification of information affect the free flow of information and the integrity of the public domain? Does the freedom of expression and information, guaranteed inter alia in the European Convention on Human Rights, call for active state intervention to `save the public domain? What means both legal and practical are available or might be conceived to guarantee and foster a robust public domain? These were the main questions that were addressed in a major collaborative research project led by the Institute for Information Law of the University of Amsterdam (IViR) in co-operation with the Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology and Society (TILT) of Tilburg University, and funded by ITeR, the Dutch National Program for Information Technology and Law. Thirteen contributions from academia worldwide make up the present book, addressing the future of the public domain from a different angle. In addition, all authors were invited to reflect upon the notion and role of the public domain in the context of information law and policy. Should this concept be limited to that of a `negative image of (intellectual) property protection, i.e. all publicly available information not subject to a property right, and therefore freely (i.e. gratis) available, or should a broader approach be taken, e.g. all information available from public sources at affordable cost? Should information policies be aimed at maximizing the public domain or optimizing information flows? To what extent are these aims congruent? This book takes a broader, `information law oriented approach towards the question of preserving the public domain, in which a wide range of interrelated legal questions converge. Issues treated in this book include: Economic analysis of the public domain Fundamental rights analysis of the public domain Impact of the application of technological protection measures and contractual restrictions on the public domain The impact of the expansion of copyright, database right and patent rights on the public domain The impact of the commodification of private data, government information, indigenous knowledge on the public domain The capacity of the Open Source and Creative Commons Movements to preserve the integrity of the public domain The Future of the Public Domain is an important work for all those interested or involved in the regulation of the knowledge economy. Legal scholars, academic and research institutions, corporate counsel, lawyers, government policymakers and regulators all these and more will benefit enormously from the thoughtful and incisive discussions presented here.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Download or read book The Market or the Public Domain written by Daniel Drache and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-07-08 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the powerful idea of the return, reconstitution and redeployment of the public domain in a post-Seattle and post-Washington consensus world order, this innovative book is the most forward-looking and comprehensive examination of the need to rethink the tenants of global free trade. In the past two decades, countries have focused on broadening and guaranteeing market access, and as the pendulum swings back for the market, the issue of investing in the public domain becomes a priority. The authors believe that devising new institutions of governance for a globalizing world requires fundamental change nationally and internationally. They argue that new public spaces, places and services are required to strengthen democracy and create sanctuaries in society where the market mechanism cannot reach. The public domain is an incipient concept that enables states to reduce the intrusiveness of markets and at the same time develop a strong national performance to reduce the inequality and social exclusion in an increasingly volatile global economy. This original volume boasts an impressive list of international contributors who have demonstrated innovation and leadership in their fields. It will strongly appeal to advanced students, academics and policy makers involved in the field of global governance and international political economy.

Excerpt: ...codes whose provisions were equally binding on all. The beginnings of formal law codes recognizing the individual as a responsible unit in society was a great step forward in the evolution of social institutions. 1 Ancient Law, pp. 121-122. 130 130 1 Ancient Law, p. 163. But even then men more or less lost their identity in the social order. Power in the form of external control, emanating from a superior source, regulated or limited the individual's field of action. Later on the church, for instance, took upon itself the right and duty of ordering his religious life until the movement for free thinking and personal liberty found expression in the Reformation, a movement which brought about the organization and dissemination of the great protestant faiths, and which in the earlier periods, as the name signifies, was a protest against highlydeveloped authoritative central control by an institution repressive of individual liberty in matters religious. Though it can hardly be said that this protestant movement completely realized in itself the ideal of religious liberty and toleration, yet it paved the way for reformations to follow down to the present time and for increasing religious freedom.2 It should be remembered, also, that the great protestant movements for religious freedom followed those of the preceding intellectual renaissance when intellectual freedom was fighting for life, not only theoretically but also literally. In fact, the Reformation was chiefly induced by the revival of learning of the Renaissance during which time the individual began to move out of the intellectual gloom which so long had enshrouded him. 2 For later developments of religious freedom cf. Lecky, Democracy and Liberty, ch. vi, pp. 509-529 (especially)....
