Akshat Agrawal on Indian Copyright Law & Policy


Listen Later

In this episode, Akshat Agrawal, a recent graduate of the Jindal Global Law School and law clerk to Justice Pratibha M. Singh of the Delhi High Court, discusses his work on Indian copyright law, specifically focusing on copyrightable subject matter from an anti-colonialist perspective. Agrawal describes the sources of Indian copyright law and the current state of Indian copyright doctrine. He observes certain doctrinal tensions that have recently emerged in the law. And he explains why he thinks Indian copyright law should adopt doctrines specific to Indian cultural production, rather than copying colonial copyright concepts. Agrawal is on Twitter at @PhilIPnPolicy.

This episode was hosted by Brian L. Frye, Spears-Gilbert Professor of Law at the University of Kentucky College of Law. Frye is on Twitter at @brianlfrye.
