No 67: Arts and Law

Earlier or later in his or her professionship, an arts manager will face legal aspects.
Questions about copyright and intellectual property as well as problems with contracts- the manager should have a basic understanding to prevent crises in legal matters. No doubt, that he cannot replace a lawyer as the expert in such a case. We have chosen the relationship between Arts and Law as our special topic for this month and hope, you will get benefits with reading some of the 27 articles about it. One highlight is a report by our EU correspondent Tanya Wittal-Duuerkop. She wrote a review about the last European Writers congress in Brussels, which had a strong part and even a resolution about authors rights. This makes us obvious how much legal aspects can involve political dimensions, too.
