Copyleft is a strategy of utilizing copyright law to pursue the policy goal

of fostering and encouraging the equal and inalienable right to copy, share,

modify and improve creative works of authorship.  Copyleft (as a general

term) describes any method that utilizes the copyright system to achieve the

aforementioned goal.  Copyleft as a concept is usually implemented in the

details of a specific copyright license, such as the

\hyperref[GPLv3-full-text]{GNU General Public License (GPL)} and the Creative

Commons Attribution Share Alike License (the latter of which is the license

of this work itself).  Copyright holders of creative work can unilaterally

implement these licenses for their own works to build communities that

collaboratively share and improve those copylefted creative works.
