In order to find out what is going on and what could going on in reality I framed three options to analyze: no regulation at all, current type of regulation and possible ideal, corresponding to the nature of the subject regulation of cultural affairs. These are:
6.3 Anarchy
This means there is neither copyright, nor any other specific regulations for cultural affairs working at all. There was a historical precedent pretty close to these conditions. In Jacobinian France, for a short period of time, which ended in 1793, all royal publishing privileges were abolished. Aside from that particular case, individual printing privileges were granted by the royalty in the pre-copyright era.
Copyright
A universal publishing monopoly. It is the ownership, similar to the private property, which imposed onto cultural phenomena. This regime was introduced for the first time in England in 1710.
6.5 Authoright
A universal right to attribution for individual authors. This regime has never existed thus far, although its partial and twisted implementations have occurred.
