« La relation de la personne avec les choses constitue le droit des biens. Elle occupe une place centrale dans la vie sociale. La croissance économique puis la décroissance, l'écologie, le partage des ressources et des richesses, l'exode rural... éprouvent directement cette relation. Il n'est pas étonnant que des concepts nouveaux apparaissent (propriété fiduciaire, patrimoine d'affectation, droit sur les volumes...), semblant mettre en cause certaines des institutions les plus traditionnelles : propriété, patrimoine, droit réel, personnalité. De plus, les biens immatériels connaissent un essor continu et deviennent les richesses contemporaines : propriétés intellectuelle, industrielle et commerciale, titres financiers, créances... Peu à peu, le monde virtuel dessine le monde réel. L'épidémie de Covid-19 a montré toute la valeur des biens immatériels portés par les réseaux de communication modernes, qui ont permis la poursuite des relations sociales et économiques ; ce qui conduit en retour à en mesurer les limites et suscité un vif désir de retour aux biens matériels. Au regard de la complexité croissante des choses juridiques, les structures fondamentales du droit des biens demeurent : distinctions du droit réel et du droit personnel, de la propriété et de la possession, des meubles et des immeubles... Le présent ouvrage rend compte de cet enchevêtrement de nos traditions enracinées dans un très lointain passé et des nouveautés dont les contours sont parfois incertains. »--Quatrième de couverture

"Ce Précis se veut être un recueil de notes pour les étudiants inscrits dans un cours de propriété intellectuelle. Nous avons souhaité y intégrer l'essentiel plutôt que de nous attarder aux nombreux aspects et particularités de ce domaine du droit si fascinant. Cette construction vise à forcer les étudiants à pousser leurs réflexions, par exemple, en lien avec le sujet de l'intelligence artificielle, un des sujets que nous avons volontairement omis du Précis. Pour cette première édition, le droit d'auteur, les marques de commerce et les brevets sont abordés. Le sujet des dessins industriels fera l'objet d'une prochaine édition." --Préface.

"Margaret Conrad's history of Canada begins with a challenge to its readers. What is Canada? What makes up this diverse, complex, and often contested nation-state? What was its founding moment? And who are its people? Drawing on her many years of experience as a scholar, writer, and teacher of Canadian history, Conrad offers astute answers to these difficult questions. Beginning in Canada's deep past with the arrival of its Indigenous peoples, she traces its history through the conquest by Europeans, the American Revolutionary War, and the industrialization of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, to its prosperous present. As a social historian, Conrad emphasizes the peoples' history: the relationships between Indigenous peoples and settlers, French and English, Catholic and Protestant, rich and poor. She writes of the impact of disease, how women fared in the early colonies, and the social transformations that took place after the Second World War as Canada began to assert itself as an independent nation. It is this grounded approach that drives the narrative and makes for compelling reading. In its final chapters, the author explains the social, economic, and political upheavals that have bedeviled the nation in recent years. Despite its successes and its popularity as a destination for immigrants from across the world, Canada remains a cautious and contested country. This intelligent, concise, and lucid book explains just why that is"-- Provided by publisher.
