Copyright Consciousness: Musical Creativity and Intellectual Property in Turkey

Join us for a book discussion with Dr. Dave Fossum on Copyright Consciousness, his groundbreaking study of how intellectual property law, musical creativity, and state cultural policy intersect in Turkey’s dynamic music industry. Drawing on five decades of ethnographic and archival research, Fossum explores how musicians, courts, and policymakers negotiate the meaning of copyright and its impact on cultural life.  You can also watch our Melikian Faculty Affiliate video where Dr. Fossum discusses his research and more.
