It provides for the legal, non-licensed citation or incorporation of copyrighted material in another author\u2019s work under a four-factor balancing test. The term \u201cfair use\u201d originated in the United States. A similar principle, fair dealing, exists in some other common law jurisdictions. Civil law jurisdictions have other limitations and exceptions to copyright.
