Copyright and Freedom of Expression in Europe

Contains description of constitutional framework of copyright in Europe, introduction to Article 10 ECHR, overview of copyright v. free speech case law in Europe (focus on Germany, Netherlands and France), analysis of relevant ECHR case law, and conclusions.
