Abstract

This chapter provides a theoretical and historical background about copyright and examines relevant key concepts such as information and knowledge, as well as the public interest. It first examines major theories regarding copyright and then reviews the historic developments at the national, regional and international levels. This is followed by an analysis of the relation between copyright protection and the circulation of information. Finally, the public interest concept is examined for it is the framework employed to determine the basis on which copyright limitations and exceptions have been granted.
