While it is generally understood how intellectual property law applies to businesses, entrepreneurs, creatives and the like, IP in fact has played foundational roles in a profusion of landmark cases addressing the country's biggest sociopolitical issues. On this episode, Jessica Silbey, professor of law at Northeastern University and co-director of the school's Center for Law, Innovation and Creativity, challenges traditional notions of the field, discusses impacts of the digital age, and spotlights key cases that illustrate why IP law is woven through the very fabric of American democracy.
In this episode, Jessica M. Silbey, Professor of Law and Co-Director, Center for Law, Innovation and Creativity at Northeastern University School of Law, discusses her essay "Photocopier," which will be included in the book "A History of Intellectual Property in 50 Objects," edited by Claudy Op Den Kamp and Dan Hunter, and published by Cambridge University Press. Silbey begins by describing the book project and explaining how she got involved in it. She then recounts the history of the invention of the photocopier, and the different people and companies involved in its creation. She reflects on the social impact of the photocopier, and its ironic relationship to intellectual property.
