This book provides an interdisciplinary approach to copyright law, dealing with symbiotic relations between law, philosophy and the sociology of the human creative ability. The study takes its organising principle from John Locke, defining and proving the fatal flaw inherent in debates on copyright: on the one hand, the copyright community is eager to arm authors with a robust property right over their creation, while on the other this community totally ignores the fact that the exposure of the individual to externalities is what makes him or her capable of creating material that is copyrightable.
