Abstract

This Article argues that scholars and the courts were unaware of a fundamental element defining the social reality of contemporary copyright and aims to remedy this lack of awareness. It articulates an innovative approach to copyright by arguing that works of art and authorship are expressions of dialogical transactions both between and among artists and authors, and between them and the public. These transactions have become a defining virtue of cultures that create and distribute the properties of social life through networks of information.
