The Politics of Intellectual PropertyJessica LitmanUniversity of Michigan Law School September 5, 2009 Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal, Vol. 27, No. 2, 2009 U of Michigan Public Law Working Paper No. 167 Abstract: This talk, delivered at the 2006 AALS mid-year meeting, briefly addresses the politics of copyright legislation before segueing into the politics of intellectual property scholarship. I urge that the metaphor of a “copyright war,” used by both copyright owners and copyright reformers, is uncomfortably apt. It reflects a polarization of the copyright community that has affected copyright scholarship in unhealthy ways, encouraging scholars to choose sides in the copyright wars and to tailor their scholarship to fit.
