Re: [ox-de] Lawrence Lessig: Freie Kultur

Das wartet seit ca. 1 Jahr auf eine sinnvolle Antwort hier.

Die Antwort wird dich zwar nicht begeistern, aber vielleicht doch mal
Eben Moglen zu genau deinem Thema:

<zitat>
At a certain stage in the development of the means of production and of
exchange, the conditions under which feudal society produced and
exchanged, the feudal organisation of agriculture and manufacturing
industry, in one word, the feudal relations of property became no longer
compatible with the already developed productive forces; they became so
many fetters. They had to be burst asunder; they were burst asunder.

Into their place stepped free competition, accompanied by a social and
political constitution adapted to it, and by the economic and political
sway of the bourgeois class.  But "free competition" was never more than
an aspiration of bourgeois society, which constantly experienced the
capitalists' intrinsic preference for monopoly.  Bourgeois property
exemplified the concept of monopoly, denying at the level of practical
arrangements the dogma of freedom bourgeois law inconsistently
proclaimed.  As, in the new digital society, creators establish
genuinely free forms of economic activity, the dogma of bourgeois
property comes into active conflict with the dogma of bourgeois freedom.
 Protecting the ownership of ideas requires the suppression of free
technology, which means the suppression of free speech.  The power of
the State is employed to prohibit free creation.  Scientists, artists,
engineers and students are prevented from creating or sharing knowledge,
on the ground that their ideas imperil the owners' property in the
system of cultural production and distribution.  It is in the courts of
the owners that the creators find their class identity most clearly, and
it is there, accordingly, that the conflict begins.
</zitat>

Hier begründet also einer der "Großen" dieser amerikanischen kulturellen
Linken, warum er meint, dass *genau* auf dem *juristischen* Feld ("It is
in the courts of the owners ...") die Auseinandersetzungen beginnen
werden. Und das machen sie seitdem, in guter alter amerikanischer
Tradition des "just do it" ohne langes Palaver. Und ein guter Teil der
Portokasse (buhh) von Google (buhh) geht in die juristischen
Auseinandersetzungen (buhh-buhh), auf die sich diese Leute mit dem
Google Print Project (buhh) eingelassen (buhh-buhh-buhh) haben.

Vielleicht ist die Welt ja doch nicht so einfach gestrickt wie du dir
das vorstellst.

Aber guddi, ich hör ja schon auf. hgg
