A new paper exploring the development of the "ex post" theory of "intellectual property" has been published by Prof. Mark Lemley (Stanford Law School). The paper describes how common arguments for the extension of copyright and patents are fundamentally at odds with the public goods nature of information. Details from the Social Science Research Network library at SSRN.com.
