Rio 2010 CopySouth Workshop
.
.
Third
CopySouth Workshop
International Conference on Copyright Issues
.
The
CopySouth
Research Group (CSRG) invites you to attend and join in the debates at
its three day international conference on copyright to be held in Rio
de Janeiro, Brazil at the end of June.
It is an important moment to discuss these issues. In 1710 –
exactly three hundred years ago – the first copyright law in
the
world was enacted in England. Is this an anniversary worth celebrating?
Around the world, the antiquated assumptions of copyright law and
ideology are again being questioned and new conflicts are breaking out.
In Brazil, for example, more than 500 musicians, writers, academics and
others signed an open letter in late May calling on their government to
reform its copyright laws so that users can have more access to music
and books. Meanwhile, the well-financed campaign against so-called
copyright “piracy” has become even more vocal and
threatens
us all… except large corporations. Although three of the
most
important countries in the global South – China, India and
Brazil
– were not even invited to the talks, a new anti-piracy
treaty
called ACTA is about to be signed by rich nations in North America and
Europe, as well as Japan and a few smaller countries.
As we meet, a list of long-standing and complex questions is demanding
new answers. Do most musicians benefit from the copyright system and
the current way that the music industry is organised? How can we
promote far more access to educational materials in the countries of
South America, Africa and Asia than already exists? And, speaking of
access and sharing, why do so many ideas and so many cultural products
flow from the North to the South… and why do so few flow the
other way? Can we justify the current economic logic of the global
copyright system? And what are viable alternatives to the current
system?
To address these questions and many more that you may want to raise,
the CSRG has assembled a group of leading critical researchers,
musicians and activists from around the world to come to Rio and to
speak on seven panels. The speakers are from Brazil (7), Chile (1),
Bolivia (1), Cuba (2), the United States (3), South Africa (2), Ghana
(1), the Philippines (2), Switzerland (1), and the United Kingdom (2).
We expect some strong opinions to be voiced and some good open debates
to occur. So we extend an open invitation to all people interested in
these issues, such as students, librarians, teachers, researchers,
musicians and information activists, to attend.
There will be simultaneous interpretation in Portuguese, Spanish and
English.
Hope
see
you in Rio on 28 June.

is an Associate Professor in
the Department of Communication, University of California San Diego.
Her
research is on the intellectual property protection of traditional
knowledge in
relation to questions of gender, cultural nationalism, legal
subjectivity and
the postcolonial state. She theorizes intellectual property law as a
“technology of modernity” that does not only
adjudicate claims over knowledge and cultural production, but also
organizes
the latter in hierarchies that correspond to wider structures and
relations of
power. Her forthcoming book is The Copyright Thing Doesn’t
Work Here: Cloth, Culture,
Power and Intellectual Property Law in Ghana.”
