Buenos Aires Convention

Read a random definition: registrant

A quick definition of Buenos Aires Convention:

The Buenos Aires Convention is a treaty that was made in 1910 to help protect people's rights to their creative work, like books, music, and art. It was an agreement between countries in Latin America and the United States. The treaty made sure that if someone said "all rights reserved" on their work, it would be protected in all the countries that signed the treaty. However, since then, many of these countries have signed newer and better treaties that protect copyright even more, so the Buenos Aires Convention doesn't have much effect anymore.

A more thorough explanation:

The Buenos Aires Convention is a treaty that was signed in 1910 to regulate copyright reciprocity between Latin American nations and the United States. The purpose of the treaty was to ensure that copyright protection was guaranteed in member nations.

One of the key provisions of the Buenos Aires Convention was the use of the phrase "all rights reserved" to indicate that a work was protected by copyright. This phrase was recognized in all member nations, which helped to simplify the process of copyright protection across borders.

While the Buenos Aires Convention was an important step in the development of international copyright law, it has since been superseded by more recent and broader treaties. As a result, the Convention has little practical effect today.

For example, if a musician from the United States wanted to protect their music in a Latin American country that was a member of the Buenos Aires Convention, they could use the phrase "all rights reserved" to indicate that their work was protected by copyright. This would ensure that their music could not be used or distributed without their permission.
