Talk:Module 2: The International Framework

CONFUSING/UNCLEAR/CONCEPTUALLY INCOMPLETE SECTIONS THAT NEED TO BE SUBSTANTIVELY REWRITTEN

• These are sections where I tried to copyedit but I do not know WTF they are talking about and complex things need to be broken down because even I do not know what they are referring to.
• Under the Rome Convention bit:
  • "The Rome Convention requires member countries to grant protection to the performances of performers, the phonograms of producers of phonograms, and the broadcasts of broadcasting organizations. However, once a performer has consented to the incorporation of her performance in a visual or audiovisual fixation, the provisions on performers’ rights have no further application. Equally important, the Convention allows member countries to create certain exceptions to the rights of performers, producers of phonographs, and broadcasting organizations – for example, to permit nonpermissive uses of a work for the purpose of teaching or scientific research."
• Under the UCC bit:
  • " The UCC’s provisions are more flexible than those of the Berne Convention. This increased flexibility was intended to accommodate countries at different stages of development and countries with sharply different economic and social systems. It incorporates the principle of national treatment and prohibits any discrimination against foreign

authors."

• Case study:
  • It is not clear which treaties/conventions/etc Mexio is a member of! This makes it confusing when it says "belgium" is the one place she can work because the user has no understanding of what Mexico itself is governed by.
  • Question 6 is strange.
