CopyrightX 2021

Course Overview

CopyrightX is a twelve-week course offered under the auspices of Harvard Law School, the HarvardX distance-learning initiative, and the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society.

The course explores the current law of copyright; the impact of that law on art, entertainment, and industry; and the ongoing debates concerning how the law should be reformed. Through a combination of recorded lectures, assigned readings, weekly seminars, live interactive webcasts, and online discussions, participants in the course examine and assess the ways in which the copyright system seeks to stimulate and regulate creative expression.

This Affiliate CopyrightX course offers equal focus on both the US Copyright law and the Namibia Copyright law, thereby providing students a comparative perspective.
