If you are intrigued by the concept of the role of the lawbreaker as a force in the evolution of property law, you can read an earlier treatment of the topic entitled \u201cProperty Outlaws,\u201d co-authored by Professors Pe\u00f1alver and Katyal in 155 U. PA<\/font>. L. REV<\/font>. 1095 (2007) and available in Scholarship@Cornell Law<\/a>.\u00a0 The book expands the scope of the earlier article and also introduces the concept of \u201cAltlaws.”\u00a0 Altlaws appear to violate the laws of intellectual property but \u201cskirt the boundaries of property legality and can often make an objectively plausible argument that, although in a sense they are rebelling against the property status quo, their conduct actually falls within the boundaries of legal permissibility.\u201d\u00a0 Altlaws push against the unclear boundaries of intellectual property law, as opposed to Outlaws who clearly operate outside the boundaries of property law.<\/p>\n
