A Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Católica Portuguesa realiza a Conferência “Digital Copyright and Licensing on the 21st century”, no âmbito do Ciclo de Conferências em Direito Transnacional.

A disponibilidade de conteúdos, o acesso fá­cil, globalizado, a meios de distribuição, a simplicidade de reprodução de qualquer obra na íntegra, regularmente de modo abusivo são apenas exemplos que apontam o “cyber-mundo” como sendo o mais recente desafio para a comunidade jurídica em Portugal.
