The Right of Publicity
Author: Jennifer RothmanPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674986350
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Who controls how one’s identity is used by others? This legal question, centuries old, demands greater scrutiny in the Internet age. Jennifer Rothman uses the right of publicity—a little-known law, often wielded by celebrities—to answer that question, not just for the famous but for everyone. In challenging the conventional story of the right of publicity’s emergence, development, and justifications, Rothman shows how it transformed people into intellectual property, leading to a bizarre world in which you can lose ownership of your own identity. This shift and the right’s subsequent expansion undermine individual liberty and privacy, restrict free speech, and suppress artistic works. The Right of Publicity traces the right’s origins back to the emergence of the right of privacy in the late 1800s. The central impetus for the adoption of privacy laws was to protect people from “wrongful publicity.” This privacy-based protection was not limited to anonymous private citizens but applied to famous actors, athletes, and politicians. Beginning in the 1950s, the right transformed into a fully transferable intellectual property right, generating a host of legal disputes, from control of dead celebrities like Prince, to the use of student athletes’ images by the NCAA, to lawsuits by users of Facebook and victims of revenge porn. The right of publicity has lost its way. Rothman proposes returning the right to its origins and in the process reclaiming privacy for a public world.

Covering the period from the Louisiana Purchase to the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, 57 Years is the collective story of the people who worked to legally undo the mandates of the slave laws through the 'freedom suits'. From Jean Marie Scypion to Dred Scott, the book depicts legal battles fought against the rich, powerful, and entrenched. Author Anthony Sestric relays the story of lawyers and judges, their clients, and the people who financed the effort to end slavery and to keep Missouri in the Union. Their campaigns raged from Missouri to Washington, D.C., and were followed by Horace Greely and his New York Times. The cost to some was their lives, while others disappeared, never to be heard from again.
