10/15/2015
Professor Jacqueline Lipton of the University of Akron School of Law presented the lecture “Rethinking Cyberlaw” on October 14 as part of IU McKinney’s IP Center Distinguished Lecture Series.
Professor Lipton’s book of the same title was published in 2015 by Edward Elgar Publishing. The work examines how cyberlaw, cyberspace law or Internet law has come to be defined, and looks at legal developments in the United States and worldwide to illustrate the law’s scope. She previously was the Baker Botts Professor of Law and co-director of the Institute for Intellectual Property and Information Law at the University of Houston Law Center. Prior to that, Professor Lipton held faculty positions at Case Western Reserve University, the University of Nottingham, and Monash University. Her scholarship focuses on law and digital technology, as well as law and the creative arts.
