monopoly
“Intellectual monopolies are hurting culture”
“Monopoly granted to the author is a foundation of the copyright”
/used:/
To support the notion that public domain is a rule and copyright is an exception
Was prominent in copyright debate, but was replaced by the word “property” recently, especially in “intellectual property”
In liberal ideology “property” is good and “monopoly” is bad, so liberals may see it as derogatory
/recommendations:/
Use it whenever you can to legitimize the rights of the public
Always try to use phrase “intellectual monopolies” instead of “intellectual property”
