Copy South Research Group
Posted by Celia Walter | 1 Sep, 2008This website represents the Copy South Research Group, which has
examined copyright laws and their impact on developing countries,
something it regards the developed world (‘The North’) imposing on
developing countries (‘The South’) to their detriment. It examines
alternatives from these regions, stressing the potentially enriching
role which freer forms of information sharing can have. Of primary
interest on the website is the 208-page ‘Copy South Dossier’, a free
collection of articles examining the issue from a wide variety of
perspectives. Since 2006, when the dossier was published, the group has
received AHRC funding.
