Knowledge Policy for the 21st Century: A Legal Perspective

This book arose out of the Knowledge Policy for the 21st Century (KP 21) Conference that we organized in April 2007 at The University of Western Ontario Faculty of Law. The conference was a collaborative research exercise between our respective universities: The University of Western Ontario (UWO) and The Queensland University of Technology (QUT). The KP 21 Conference aimed to examine key copyright issues facing contemporary society. In doing so the conference was run over two days and focused on free and open source software on day one and copyright in the digital age on day two.
