Summary
Legal transplantation is a common, though contested, method of legal development, connecting sometimes disparate legal cultures. The incorporation, in 2000, of authors’ moral rights into Australian copyright law was one such transplantation. The present chapter discusses the process, asking whether moral rights themselves have been affected by the transplantation, what effect the transplantation has had or might have on Australian copyright law and whether the transplant can be called a success.
