Description

Creativity Without Law: Challenging the Assumptions of Intellectual Property. Intellectual property law is based on certain assumptions about creative behavior, but these assumptions do not fully capture the reality of creative production. This book reveals the on-the-ground practices of a range of creators and innovators who thrive without formal legal protections. The communities featured in this book demonstrate that creativity can exist in environments defined by self-regulation rather than legal rules. From tattoo artists to medical researchers, Nigerian filmmakers to roller derby players, these accounts show how creative incentives often arise from evolving social norms and market responses sensitive to their particular cultural, competitive, and technological circumstances.
