“…Nevertheless, it is important to remember that other types of resources available to other agents, such as the Internet, may balance the economic power of some stakeholders. Collective action gains new cheaper opportunities with these new technologies and this may be of particular relevance in the field of copyright and related rights (see Herman, 2009). …”

Abstract-This paper aims to develop an alternative framework to understand copyright based upon a Marxist analysis of this field. By providing a bibliographical research on both the fundamentals of property theories and Marxist perspectives, I try to promote another understanding on how creative industries operate. Therefore, the paper provides a literature study on both intellectual property theories and Marxism. Regarding intellectual property theories, I focus on four types of approaches: welfare theory, labor theory, personality theory and culture theory. In what concerns Marxist perspectives, I explain most fundamental concepts such as "class", "exploitation" and the relationship between classes and State according to a Marxist view. Then, I try to build a framework that links these concepts. Finally, I employ this Marxist framework to the "modus operandi" of copyright core industries by analyzing how stakeholders interact with each other and in what extent they may affect public policies on copyright and related rights. In the final remarks, I suggest a research agenda on Marxism and copyright. Thus, this is a preliminary exercise to encourage other studies.

Members include scholars, librarians, educators, NGOs such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and Public Knowledge, and a few allied policymakers (Herman, 2009, pp. 68–77).…”

“…The law prohibits most circumvention, even if the intended use is noninfringing, meaning that it would otherwise be legal under copyright law. Rep. Rick Boucher (D‐VA) and congressional allies proposed allowing circumvention for noninfringing purposes—such as teaching, research, and personal use—and allowing some development and sale of circumvention devices (Herman, 2009, pp. 167–168).…”
