Universal Copyright Convention

Read a random definition: textualism

A quick definition of Universal Copyright Convention:

The Universal Copyright Convention is a treaty that was created in 1952. It requires countries that sign it to give the same copyright protection to citizens of other member nations as they do to their own citizens. This treaty is managed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization. However, it does not apply to countries that are also signatories of the Berne Convention. The United States signed the treaty in 1955.

A more thorough explanation:

The Universal Copyright Convention is a treaty that was established in 1952. It requires countries that sign the treaty to provide the same level of copyright protection to citizens of other member nations as they do to their own citizens. The treaty is administered by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

For example, if a book written by a citizen of one member nation is published in another member nation, the author would be entitled to the same copyright protection in the second nation as they would in their own nation.

It's important to note that the Universal Copyright Convention does not apply to nations that are also signatories of the Berne Convention, which is another international treaty that governs copyright law.
