I looked at the series this article was written for, and the previous article does make a suggestion, and names a group which is working for it at the WIPO.

Here's the key summary:

We need to stop shoe-horning cultural use into the little carve-outs in copyright, such as fair dealing and fair use. Instead we need to establish a new copyright regime that reflects the age-old normative consensus about what's fair and what isn't at the small-scale, hand-to-hand end of copying, display, performance and adaptation.

Hopefully my small extraction here does not fall astray of the copyright laws.
