Copyright law of the European Union
The copyright law of the European Union consists of a number of directives, which the member states are obliged to enact into their national laws, and by the judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union (including the the European Court of Justice and the General Court). Directives of the EU are passed to harmonise the laws of European Union member states.
== History ==
Attempts to harmonise copyright law in Europe (and beyond) can be dated to the signature of the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works on 9 September 1886: all European Union Member States are signatories of the Berne Convention,〔Source: (WIPO )〕 and compliance with its dispositions is now obligatory before accession. The first major step taken by the European Economic Community to harmonise copyright laws came with the decision to apply common standard for the copyright protection of computer programs, enacted in the Computer Programs Directive in 1991. A common term of copyright protection, 70 years from the death of the author, was established in 1993 as the Copyright Duration Directive.
The implementation of directives on copyright has been rather more controversial than for many other subjects, as can be seen by the six judgments for non-transposition of the Copyright Directive.〔(''Commission of the European Communities v Kingdom of Spain'' ) (Case C-31/04), (''Commission of the European Communities v Republic of Finland'' ) (Case C-56/04), (''Commission of the European Communities v French Republic'' ) (Case C-59/04), (''Commission of the European Communities v United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'' ) (Case C-88/04), (''Commission of the European Communities v Kingdom of Sweden'' ) (Case C-91/04), (''Commission of the European Communities v Kingdom of Belgium'' ) (Case C-143/04).〕 Traditionally, copyright laws vary considerably between member states, particularly between common law jurisdictions (Cyprus, Ireland, Malta and the United Kingdom) and civil law countries. Changes in copyright law have also become linked to protests against the World Trade Organization and globalisation in general.
