The protection of privacy and personality is one of the most fascinating issues confronting any legal system. This book provides a detailed comparative analysis of intellectual property rights in an individual's name, voice or likeness in the major legal systems: France, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States. It examines the tensions between protecting an individual's privacy and personality through intellectual property law and the wider public interests in free speech and free competition.
内容简介
The protection of privacy and personality is one of the most fascinating issues confronting any legal system. This book provides a detailed comparative analysis of the laws relating to commercial exploitation of personality in France, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States. It examines the difficulties in reconciling privacy and personality with intellectual property rights in an individual's identity and in balancing such rights with the competing interests of freedom of expression and freedom of competition.
