It sponsors and cultivates research, teaching, policy development and knowledge exchange on law, legal theory, and policy related to technology, broadly understood.

As a scholarly research centre, the Centre is open to interdisciplinary approaches, including law’s dialogue with the humanities, social sciences and digital humanities. The Centre faculty approach foundational, theoretical and topical issues concerning law and technology through the rubrics of law, philosophy, political science, economics and cultural studies, with particular expertise in intellectual property, cyberlaw, privacy, and biotechnology law.  Prof. Simon Stern & Prof. Abraham Drassinower, Co-Directors.

This year’s workshop will seek to explore all aspects of the circulation/control dilemma from historical and/or contemporary perspectives.  Modalities of control that might be considered include:  licensing practices; distribution and business models; collectivization; cultural appropriation; authors, inventors and ownership; criminal provisions; international trade agreements; technological means of control such as technological protection measures, anti-circumvention laws, search engines and aggregators; surveillance and policing by law enforcement agencies, ISPs, trolls; and organized resistance to corporate control by users and pirate movements.
 
The International Society for the History and Theory of Intellectual Property (ISHTIP) promotes and supports scholarly investigation of the national histories of patent, copyright, and “related” rights; the diverse “roads not taken” in the evolution of these legal structures; contemporary countertrends; and the laws and norms that have been devised in non European cultures around the world to manage intellectual production and exchange.
