And in the meantime, for those looking, the Web Archive works well for this.

More generally, I think institutional lectures in the UK aren’t easy to find, and people miss out on some great material.

The nice thing about them is that – if the links work – at least they’re not behind a paywall.

If no one has noticed this yet, the PDF links to the Inner Temple lecture archive don't work. E.g., www.innertemple.org.uk/education/ed.... Which is a shame, as many of these were excellent.

Legal Theory Blog is at legaltheoryblog.com. The Legal Theory Lexicon is at legaltheorylexicon.com. Thanks in advance for you help.

Glad you liked the piece!

Anyway – hope this was helpful. Good luck & thanks for reading.

In many European jurisdictions, while there may be no "work for hire," the law nonetheless implies a transfer of copyright from the employee to the employer into the employment agreement. E.g., Spain. Netherlands go even further. E.g., in software, the EU directive allocates rights to the employer.

Regarding Europe, unfortunately, the story is not quite as simple or romantic as you think. For a short overview, see, e.g., pp. 576-79 here: cardozoaelj.com/wp-content/u.... See also pages attached below.

Trevor – congratulations. I don't know your story but let's put it like this: sometimes you may even sue a big corporation for breach of contract and win. Doesn't mean the system is geared towards that outcome.
