associate a creative dimension, a symbolic dimension, <strong>and</strong> the existence of<br />

intellectual property rights 4 . The difficulty with such a definition is that it is so<br />

broad that it can include, for example, sporting events. As O’Connor defines them,<br />

activities using the consumption/production typology presented above (which will<br />

serve as the basis for presentation in this report).<br />
