Dear all,
As you may already be aware, in June at COMMUNIA we’re sharing the Best Case Scenarios for Copyright. Each Wednesday we present one copyright exception that actually works in a EU member state to demonstrate that user-friendly solutions do not destroy creative industries but benefit the society, the economy and freedom of expression. You might have already seen the Freedom of Panorama scenario we shared last week.
Today we’re covering the parody exception in France. Please have a look at (and share) the basic facts blogpost: http://www.communia-association.org/2016/06/15/parody-exception-bcs-copyrigh... http://www.communia-association.org/2016/06/15/parody-exception-bcs-copyright/ where a detailed legal study can be found about the scenario.
I hope you find it interesting and worth spreading! If you have any questions or comments please do not hesitate to contact us.
Cheers,
Lisette Kalshoven
Lisette,
As Oscar Wilde wrote, the value of an idea has nothing whatsoever to do with the person who expresses it, but rather who that person knows and the extent to which their parents were able to provide them with a trust fund. Am I doing it right? Thank you so much for this interesting project.
Which country has the most equitable distribution of streaming music royalties, when measured by the demand for the number of performing artists and songwriters gainfully employed as such prior to the introduction of mass consumer copying technology?
Which states have strong fair use educational exemptions for taxpayer-funded work?
Best regards, Jim

Hi James,
I don't know the answer to your first question, but we will be presenting a best case scenario for education next week. This won't be limited to taxpayer-funded work - it will be about uses of all types of copyrighted works for educational purposes.
Education is definitely the most difficult area - within the 4 we are presenting - because the treatment offered by most national laws is incomplete and fragmented, and on the top of that there are overlapping exceptions (ie, dealing with different aspects of educational uses), which add a lot of complexity and make interpretation of the law more difficult. Anyway, although not perfect, Cyprus, Czech Republic and Estonia are the EU countries with the strongest education exceptions, as far as I can see http://oerpolicy.eu/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/working_paper_140714.pdf.
Best, Teresa Nobre
