Brussels Act

Read a random definition: free enterprise

A quick definition of Brussels Act:

Brussels Act: A law made in 1948 that says creators of things like books, music, and art have the right to control how their work is used for at least 50 years after they die. It also says that people can't change the work or use it without giving credit to the creator. The law also protects things like TV shows and designs, making sure that people can't copy them without permission.

A more thorough explanation:

The Brussels Act is a revision of the Berne Convention that was created in 1948. It sets a minimum standard for copyright term, which is life-plus-50-years. This means that the copyright of a work lasts for the life of the creator plus 50 years after their death. The Brussels Act also extends the moral rights of attribution and integrity in most member countries to the full copyright term. This means that the creator has the right to be identified as the author of their work and to object to any changes that may harm their reputation.

In addition, the Brussels Act extends the broadcast right to television, which means that broadcasters have the exclusive right to broadcast a work on television. It also strengthens protection of several forms of copyright protection, such as music, literature, and art. Finally, the Brussels Act extends some protection to industrial designs, which means that the design of a product is protected by copyright.

For example, if a musician creates a song, they have the exclusive right to perform, record, and distribute that song for their lifetime plus 50 years after their death. If someone else wants to use that song, they must get permission from the musician or their estate. This protects the musician's work and ensures that they receive credit and compensation for their creation.
