- Title
New Materialisms in Law. A Plea for a Contemporary Ontology of Intellectual Property Law.
- Authors
Haux, Dario Henri
- Abstract
New Materialism examines the role of subjects and objects in an environment shaped by new technologies. Based on these observations and considerations, the aim was to develop a new conception of materiality in the dynamic interplay of signifying processes and material structures. In a twenty-first-century world, where the points of interaction between humans and modern technological devices are steadily increasing, this approach becomes even more relevant. From a legal perspective, however, it becomes clear that this interplay between humans and processes has only been inadequately traced so far. In order to redress this dissatisfying situation, what is needed is a contemporary law that not only recognizes new subjects as such, but also understands new processes and roles. The aim of the present paper is thus to trace these processes between subjects and objects. In a second step, the aim is to build on the theory of New Materialism to make these insights workable for intellectual property law.
