A STUDY ON THE EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PRESENT COPYRIGHT LAW

The copyright system is unable to effectively respond to the challenges posed by continous development of technology and the internet.

Copyright law seeks to strike a balance between the rights of the creator and the copyright owner, so that they may manage and protect their business and works. Currently, copyright has become increasingly important, particularly in terms of accurately ensuring the source of information. The internet has allowed consumers across the globe to access information easily and with few boundaries. Yet this tool has also allowed consumers to access and reproduce works without adhering to copyright requirements. How has copyright law dealt with this global problem and how can it seek to alleviate the boundaries set by internationality? These issues will be explored in this study which will focus upon the global struggle to enforce copyright laws.
