La propiedad intelectual es una materia compleja, polémica y muy variable en el tiempo, y, al mismo tiempo, es un tema apasionante, representativo de nuestra época tecnológica, de sus avances y de sus contradicciones. Hablamos de un derecho que defiende la protección de los autores frente a los que mantienen que los contenidos intelectuales deben ser de acceso libre, hablamos de sanciones y de piratería, de literatura, de música, de cine, de contenidos en papel y en formato digital, de enseñanza y de otras muchas cuestiones. Y así en este libro se estudian aspectos tan novedosos como la tasa Google, tan polémicos como las entidades de gestión, o tan importantes como las recientes reformas llevadas a cabo en el Código Penal para castigar las infracciones de los derechos de autor. Y es que una obra que quiera tratar más o menos globalmente la propiedad intelectual ha de examinar aspectos bastante distintos, y así se ha hecho en este libro. Por ello intervienen aquí especialistas en distintas disciplinas, por un lado las jurídicas y por otro las relativas a los medios de comunicación. Las distintas profesiones de los autores son muestra también de la variedad de aspectos tratados y aquí concurren profesores e investigadores universitarios de derecho y de comunicación, junto a abogados y un fiscal del Tribunal Constitucional. La obra es interesante pues para juristas, para expertos en comunicación y en general para cualquier persona interesada en las nuevas tecnologías y la protección de los derechos en las mismas. En suma: es útil para cualquiera que quiera investigar sobre la cultura de nuestra época, que es al fin y al cabo de lo que se habla aquí.

Brand Jamaica is an empirical look at the postindependence national image and branding project of Jamaica within the context of nation-branding practices at large. Although a tiny Caribbean island inhabited by only 2.8 million people, Jamaica commands a remarkably large presence on the world stage. Formerly a colony of Britain and shaped by centuries of slavery, violence, and plunder, today Jamaica owes its popular global standing to a massively successful troika of brands: music, sports, and destination tourism. At the same time, extensive media attention focused on its internal political civil war, mushrooming violent crime, inflation, unemployment, poverty, and abuse of human rights have led to perceptions of the country as unsafe. Brand Jamaica explores the current practices of branding Jamaica, particularly within the context of postcoloniality, reconciles the lived realities of Jamaicans with the contemporary image of Jamaica projected to the world, and deconstructs the current tourism model of sun, sand, and sea. Hume Johnson and Kamille Gentles-Peart bring together multidisciplinary perspectives that interrogate various aspects of Jamaican national identity and the dominant paradigm by which it has been shaped.
