Ramalho @Copytwilight on the Competence of the EU to Create a Neighboring Right (Ancillary Copyright) For Publishers

Ana Ramalho, Maastricht University, has published The Competence of the EU to Create a Neighbouring Right for Publishers. Here is the abstract.

The assessment of competence is carried out following a step-by-step approach, which involves an analysis of the applicable Treaty norms and an assessment of subsidiarity and proportionality.
