| Popis: | Following our first paper discussing the maze of restrictive copyright rules that could apply to transformative uses of existing works, this paper discusses what is the most promising approach for reforming the European copyright regime to introduce more flexibility for transformative users. We will consider two reform proposals, both inspired by Canadian law: first, the introduction of a specific exception for user generated content, and second, a more ambitious transition to a semi-open “fair dealing” exception, striking a much better balance between flexibility and legal certainty than the current EU copyright regime. We will eventually argue in favor of this second proposal, which provides the additional advantage of not requiring a legislative reform but being achievable by the CJEU, if only it was willing to follow the footsteps of the Supreme Court of Canada in its ambitious new case law following the landmark CCH Canadian decision. |
