Profiles in Leadership | Mike Madison: Future Law
Professor Michael Madison writes about institutions and governance. Those interests span a wide range of applications: copyright and other intellectual property law; high technology; research science and data: Enlightenment arts and culture; higher education and universities; innovation policy; 21st century urbanism; and global football (soccer). He is a co-founder of the emerging research discipline known as “knowledge commons.”
Professor Madison is the author of more than 50 journal articles and book chapters, the co-author of The Law of Intellectual Property (Wolters Kluwer, 5th edition 2017) and the co-editor of Governing Knowledge Commons (Oxford University Press 2014) and Governing Medical Knowledge Commons (Cambridge University Press 2017).
He is the co-founder of the global research network titled the Workshop on Governing Knowledge Commons and co-leader of a virtual think tank on the futures of the professions, globalization, and higher education, titled Future Law Works.
He is the co-host and producer of the Future Law Podcast, which explores the rapid changes to law and the legal profession produced by their intersections with contemporary technology.
Delighted to chat with Professor Madison as he shared his insights on life and leadership.
