Fourteen philosophers, economists and legal scholars address the question 'Can intellectual property rights be fair?' What differentiates intellectual from real property? Should libertarians or Rawlsians defend IP rights? What's wrong with free-riding? How can incentives be taken into account by theories of justice?

This volume provides the first systematic exploration of intellectual property and theories of justice from a philosophical perspective. The book covers the diversity of relevant theories of justice (Lockean, Rawlsian, etc.) and touches on a wide variety of the practical issues related to intellectual property (access to drugs in the third world, traditional knowledge, open software, peer-to-peer file sharing, etc.).
