Twenty twenty-one marks the thirtieth anniversary since the beginning of the copyright harmonization process in what is today the European Union (EU). The Software Directive 91/250 was the first attempt at harmonizing the laws of EU member states regarding the requirements for and scope of protection of copyright as applied to computer programs. Today, the EU copyright legislative framework consists of 13 directives and two regulations harmonizing a range of issues within the field of copyright and related rights. Throughout this period, the process of approximation of national copyright laws, whereby member states are obliged to align their national laws with EU law, has been supported by a variety of justifications, the primary one being the building of an internal market for copyright content and copyright-based services. | | Del av verk: | WIPO Magazine 4/2021 |
