THE VALUE OF WRITERS’ WORKS

20th October 2019

The European Writer Series. ISSN: 1560-4217. 2015, 72 pp.
Published by the European Writers’ Council
Rue d’Arlon 75-77, 1040 Brussels – Belgium
Editor: Myriam Diocaretz

Proceedings of the EWC Authors’ Rights conference held at the European Parliament in Brussels on 3.11.2014.
“The Value of Writers’ Works” was an evidence-based forum addressing the challenges that concern European authors in the text and book sector in all genres, including screen-writers and literary translators. The threefold thematic platform gave the opportunity to professional writers to discuss their perspectives; it also aimed at calling the attention of the Members of the European Parliament to follow-up from the study on copyright contract law and contractual practices requested by the European Parliament Legal Affairs Committee (JURI); it was important also to receive an update on recent and forthcoming studies by the European Commission. The interconnection between the digital and its effects on the authors’ remuneration and compensation was at the crossroads of several topics.”
Myriam Diocaretz, from the editor’s introduction.
