Copyright infringement is an ever-growing problem, made worse by the constant flow of technological advances, although security devices to combat this problem are also being developed. The extent of copyright protection differs throughout the world, with varying requirements for the registration of copyright and periods for its term of protection. There are, however, attempts to harmonize legislation in this area, by, for example, European Union Directives. The difficulties in proving ownership of copyright and the ease with which goods and information can be copied make this an extremely problematic area in terms of regulation and enforcement. This volume gives an overview of the legal situation regarding copyright infringement in various countries worldwide.
