and claimed as their own

You are talking about either right for name or right of authorship. I don't remember which is which, but in normal countries(aka in Europe) it is inalienable right, unlike copyright, which can be sold.

If you want copyright THAT badly, you should demand making it inalienable instead of protecting status quo of total publisher's control.

EDIT: right for name is to have your name on art, right of authorship is to call yourself author.

EDIT2: copytight outside of capitalism just does not make sense.
