Learning outcomes

The course aims to provide students with the most important principles of the intellectual property law. A particular attention will be given to the types of intellectual property protection that are most relevant for the Master’s Degree course which focuses on tourism promotion and communication. At the end of the course the students will have acquired the essential rules of this discipline and the ability to consider and apply them in the tourism communication activity.

Program

The course is structured in two parts. The first part will deal with intellectual property and copyright in general, through a historical analysis of the normative sources and the evolution of the content of copyright, up to the study of the regulatory evolution in the matter of copyright. This first part will deal with the subjects and objects of copyright, the contents, the requirements of novelty and creative character, the moral right and the rights of economic use, the single cases and the related rights, as well as the jurisdictional protection of intellectual property rights. The second part will instead be characterized by specific insights on practical issues: the contracts concerning works protected by copyright, the rights and the organization of cultural events, street art and copyright.
