This comprehensive book delves into the intricate relationship between copyright and higher education, highlighting their mutual benefits in advancing sustainable human development. At its core, human development encompasses a range of freedoms and capabilities that are vital for individuals to thrive. By adopting a rights-based human development and capability approach (HDCA), this book primarily examines the policy and legal frameworks within the existing international copyright system, exploring their implications for access to knowledge essential for creative innovation and higher education.
The book argues that an unbalanced and restrictive copyright system hinders reasonable access to knowledge, stifling creative and learning freedoms or capabilities. In essence, a restrictive copyright system poses significant consequences for sustainable human development. Recognizing the findings of this study, the book emphasizes the urgent need for reevaluating copyright and reimagining its relevant flexibilities as users' rights, which are crucial for fostering creative and learning capabilities toward sustainable human development. Furthermore, the book underscores the complementarities between copyright and higher education, recognizing their joint roles in promoting sustainable human development.
This book appeals to researchers across a wide range of disciplines, including intellectual property law, innovation, global development, human rights, and higher education. Its application of the HDCA to examine interrelated topics makes it a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand the complexities of copyright and its impact on sustainable development.
