Berne Convention

Read a random definition: rejoinder

A quick definition of Berne Convention:

The Berne Convention is a set of international laws that protect things like books, music, and art from being copied without permission. It was made in Switzerland in 1886 and now has over 180 countries that follow it. The rules say that when someone makes something like a book or a song, it belongs to them and no one else can copy it without their permission. The rules also say that different countries have to work together to make sure everyone's work is protected.

A more thorough explanation:

The Berne Convention is an international agreement that protects copyrighted works from being copied or used without permission. It was created in 1886 in Berne, Switzerland with 10 European countries as members. Today, there are over 180 member countries and city-states.

The Berne Convention requires that all members have certain levels of copyright protection, and they must protect the works made by citizens of other members. This means that if someone creates a work in one country, it is protected in all the other member countries without needing to register it.

For example, if a musician in France creates a song, it is automatically protected in the United States, Japan, and any other member country. The musician does not need to register the song in each country separately.

The Berne Convention also establishes rules for how long a work is protected and how much control the creator has over it. For example, a book is protected for the life of the author plus 50 years, and the author has the right to decide who can publish it and how it can be used.

The United States became a member of the Berne Convention in 1989, and it has helped to create a global standard for copyright protection. By following the rules of the Berne Convention, countries can work together to protect the rights of creators and ensure that their works are not stolen or used without permission.
