The knowledge industry, in turn, sees its exploitation rights threatened by alternative models such as the exchange of information via peer-to-peer communications and attempts to enforce even stricter controls or technical barriers, for example through digital rights management. This, in turn, is seen as a threat to the global knowledge commons. This thesis examines and analyses the tension between the excessive protection of knowledge through copyright and the resulting counter-movements, using the economic models of the 'tragedy of the commons' and its mirror image, the 'tragedy of the anti-commons'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Our Knowledge Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47775523111063,"sku":"9786209762819","price":5122.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9786209762819.webp?v=1777990870","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/knowledge-caught-between-conflicting-interests-9786209762819","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
