What is free culture and how it can help with social development?/Lim Ji Won

The free-culture movement is a social movement that promotes the freedom to distribute and modify creative works as free content using the Internet and other media.

In other words, since copyright law can act as a factor that interferes with people's creativity, it is somewhat like giving the flexibility to distribute and modify. They call this system "permission culture." Examples of this culture are access to knowledge movement and copyleft.

How can this culture help society? In fact, because of the situation in which everyone needs to take an online lecture due to the Coronavirus-19, I think that the relaxation of copyright law can be a great help in class.

Professors say that they want to use various materials such as video and movies to improve the quality of the class, but the copyright law is so strict that many restrictions occur. In fact, it is said that I received a lot of e-mails containing copyright notices.

Of course, the rights of the creator are important, but the exercise of too much copyright can be a limitation of human rights and culture.

Among the MDG criticisms, criticism of women's inequality was interesting. The phenomenon of female ineq...

What is meant by that? / Lee hayoung

Q. Society is not determined by technology, nor is technology determined by society. Both emerge as two sides of the sociotechnical coin. What is meant by that? A. So to begin with, I think that society and technology are the relationships that influence each other, the concepts that one cannot include or dominate. There is technology in society, and technology exists because there is society. I think it's an inseparable relationship, so I think it can be expressed in both sides of a coin.

Summary Human rights are the basic right to live as a person. This is an absolute domain. Applicable regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, or location and guaranteed by international law. Human rights have been modified and established over a long period of time.
