On 13 March 2014, Dr. Dinusha Mendis, Co-Director of CIPPM<\/a> was invited by BLACA (UK national Group of the International Literary and Artistic Association (ALAI)<\/a> to present new research\u00a0on parody and pastiche which was carried out as part of a UK Intellectual Property (UKIPO) Commissioned project<\/a>. Dr. Mendis presented the research together with Professor Martin Krestchmer, Director CREATe<\/a>, University of Glasgow and Dr. Kris Erickson, Research Fellow, CREATe, University of Glasgow<\/a>.<\/p>\n\"index.1\"<\/a>\n

 <\/p>\n

The team carried out a project to evaluate\u00a0policy options in the implementation of the Hargreaves Review of Intellectual Property & Growth (2011).<\/p>\n\"intellectual-property-office12\"<\/a>\n

Study II<\/a>\u00a0authored by Dr. Dinusha Mendis and Professor Martin Kretshcmer offered a comparative legal review of the law of parody in seven jurisdictions and Dr. Mendis presented this research.<\/p>\n

The research carried out by Dr. Mendis and Professor Kretschmer on the legal analysis was also referred to in the Brussels Court of Appeal\u00a0in Case 201\/13 Johan Deckmyn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The Brussels Court of Appeal recognised that there was no uniformity in the legal tests for establishing a parody. In that context, it referred expressly to the recent study published by Dinusha Mendis and Martin Kretschmer, \u2018The Treatment of Parodies under Copyright Law in Seven Jurisdictions: A Comparative Review of the Underlying Principles, Parody and Pastiche\u2019, Study II, January 2013, (UK Intellectual Property Office)”.<\/em><\/p>\n

Ahead of the coming into force of a new parody exception in the UK, the team presented their research which highlighted\u00a0parody as a significant consumer activity. \u00a0This is demonstrated through new research published in Study I<\/a>\u00a0with important conclusions offered by the authors in Study III<\/a>.<\/p>\n

More information about the reports and conclusions can also be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/strong> on 1 October 2014, the new parody exception came into force. \u00a0The new exception reflects the\u00a0policy option put forward by the research team.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
