Christine Riefa, Brunel Law School, has made "Know Your Copyright from Wrong: A Guide to UK Copyright Law" available on SSRN.
Here's the abstract:
Copyright law in the UK is heavily influenced by European law and international treaties. The rationale for protection is anchored in utilitarian theories, based on the idea that an author should be rewarded for his time, effort, and creativity and that he should also be able to control the work as property. The economic protection granted to the author or copyright owner remains a strong feature of UK copyright law and shapes its contours. Our exploration of UK copyright law starts with the subsistence of Copyright to then move on to consider its duration and how copyright is transferred to third parties. Infringements and defences to infringements as well as the acts permitted by Statute are reviewed before concluding by taking into consideration moral rights, a fairly recent addition to UK copyright law.
