| Summary: | "Art is in the eye of the beholder, but the protection of the rights of artists and other creators is in the eye of the legislator. Copyright Termination and Recapture Laws by Marc H. Greenberg describes the history of Congressional efforts to give creators of copyright protected works an opportunity to renegotiate transfer agreements and related licensing agreements - first via a two-term system under the 1909 Act and then via a termination and recapture system under the 1976 Act. It is a tale of good intentions gone awry as the efforts of Congress are undone by the decisions of the Courts of Appeal and the Supreme Court. This book extensively evaluates the policy and legislative evolution, and it provides thoughtful guidance on how practitioners can create, submit, and effectively prosecute termination requests under current law"--Unedited summary from book cover |
