For those who haven't heard, Ed Lee, from Ohio State Law School, will be joining Chicago-Kent in the Fall as a full-time faculty member. He will also serve as director of the Intellectual Property Program.
Professor Lee's most recent piece is a review of Larry Lessig's new IP-themed book Remix. Here's Ed's abstract:
This book review analyzes – and remixes – Lawrence Lessig's last copyright-related book, "Remix." It takes the central ideas, including some quotations, from Remix, and transforms them with some new examples and commentary of my own. Part I summarizes and critiques Lessig’s discussion of (1) the remix and read-write (RW) culture, and (2) its relationship to the sharing, commercial, and hybrid economies. Part II discusses some of Lessig’s reform proposals for our copyright system to foster a remix culture.
