International Copyright Law

International copyright law governs the protection of creative works across different countries. It ensures that authors, artists, and creators can control how their works are used and receive compensation for their use. Key agreements, like the Berne Convention, provide a framework so that if a work is protected in one member country, it is generally protected in others as well. This legal framework helps prevent piracy and unauthorized use, enabling creators to share their work globally while safeguarding their rights. Overall, it fosters creativity and cultural exchange by ensuring fair use of artistic and intellectual properties.
