A lei autoral brasileira como elemento de restri？？o à eficácia do direito humano à educa？？o

throughout the 20th century, the development of new technologies gradually narrowed the distance between man, cultural work and intellectual property; this peaked with the advent of the internet in the mid-90s. access to works from all over the world has enormously increased the possibilities of disseminating knowledge and the materials for education and, at the very least, has also helped form a global community. nevertheless, the owners of intellectual property copyrights, brands, patents may not use them indiscriminately. therefore, in general terms, what i propose to analyze in this article is how the current copyright structure and the improper use of technology poses a serious threat to the implementation of the human right to education. i shall draw primarily on brazilian law, although some comments will be useful to understand the system in other countries, as well as to draft the copyright goals that need to be pursued.
