Abstract

Indonesia has just been named the giant of the digital economy in the Southeast Asia so this digital economy can become a pillar of the Indonesian economy in the future, especially since the Covid-19 disaster. Therefore, it is necessary to take policy strategies regarding the digital economy, especially copyright protection. Hence, this study aimed to formulate the concept and implementation of Copyright Law for developing Copyright Content as a Creative Economy based on Digital Technology in the Industrial Revolution 5.0 Era. This study used normative legal research by examining legal principles and rules from primary data sources as preliminary data and secondary data as supporting or complementary data. The study results show that Indonesia, one of the countries with the most significant creative economy, requires copyright content protection. It remains extremely weak that Indonesia is included in one of the Priority Watch List countries. Regarding this decision or policy, Indonesia had protested to the USTR (United State Trade Representative). Legal basis for copyright protection, which consists of the legal basis for economic, moral, and economic rights, should be built internationally and within the permitted period. This research concluded that the protection of Copyright content and the application of the integrated principles of good faith; precautionary; transparency; trustworthiness; accountability; proportionality; and fair and healthy development of a digital technology-based creative economy is expected to create a conducive business climate to spur the growth of a competitive and equitable creative economy.
