Texte intégralRésumé :
One of the legal intellectual property disciplines are copyrights which concerns artistic and literary works. Copyright is: bundle of exclusive legal rights that has to do with protection of literary and artistic works. It is granted to authors and artists to protect expressive works against unauthorized reproduction or distribution by third parties. Copyright protect “works”, expression of thoughts and ideas. Literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works must be original, it means not to be a copy. Copyright covers two other types of right: economic rights, the right of the owner to benefit financial reward from use of his work by others and moral rights which always have to do with original holder no matter if economic rights are transferred or not. Economic rights can be transferred. Bern Convention for the Protection of the Literary and Artistic Works is international key agreement and the oldest multilateral agreement in the field of copyright. Copyright subsists automatically on the creation of a work, no application needed, nor do any formalities apply. Nature of copyright is territorial and the minimum term of protection is life of the author plus 50 years after his/her death. In European Union and in certain number of countries, terms of protections of are extended to life of the author plus 70 years after his/her death.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Motivation: The functioning of the audiovisual sector strongly depends on the use of copyrights and related rights. Problems with their clearing could harm the functioning of companies and might even lead to strong financial problems. The distribution of copyright-protected audiovisual works requires the licensing of rights by different rightsholders. Some of them are represented by Copyright Management Organizations (CMOs), which allow users to clear rights for many works without individual negotiations. Fees paid to CMOs for copyright-protected content constitute a significant part of operating costs for companies like TV stations, cable operators, VoD (Video on Demand) platforms. In case of intellectual properties for audiovisual works, CMOs make the valuation. They have been facing legal challenges due to subjective valuations as a result of being monopolies in the local market of the represented country and lack of transparency.
Aim: This work explores the transparency of 21 CMOs in 4 EU countries due to their expected to be an integrated market status as the result of political and economic amalgamation. In addition to the adoption of The European Union Directive on collective management of copyright and multi-territorial licensing of rights, as part of the EU’s Digital Single Market project, this exploratory research, with comparative analysis of CMOs using the linear ordering methods, explains the necessity of an epagogic approach to creating correct institutions besides directives and laws, such as central observation, an ombudsman for conflict management, or an official body to employ these features in one structure to actively govern the market.
Results: The conducted analysis allowed us to reflect on the importance of transparency and taxonomic mapping of the audiovisual market landscape will be the guideline to flatten the copyright valuation divergence in the EU and eventually will pave the way for fewer disputes and more innovations.

Poturai, Kateryna. « The features of the contractual form of protection of subjective intellectual property rights for a cinematographic work under the laws of Ukraine and the countries of the European Union ». Law Review of Kyiv University of Law, no 4 (30 décembre 2020) : 323–28. http://dx.doi.org/10.36695/2219-5521.4.2020.57.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The article reveals the features of the contractual form of subjective intellectual property rights to a cinematographic work underthe laws of Ukraine and the European Union as the main form of protection of cinematographic works.The author emphasizes that in modern development of copyright relations, civil law has abandoned the legislative consolidationof the concept of copyright agreement, yet only lists and discloses the sense of its types.Thus, at the legislative and theoretical level, the problem of classifying a copyright agreement on the creation of a cinematogra -phic work as an agreement on the alienation of exclusive rights or a license agreement still remains unresolved. At the present stage,the legal regulation of the creation and use of films is further complicated by the fact that many film studios instead of copyright agreementsenter into refit contracts on the creation of films.The author draws attention to the fact that the French legal doctrine does not see any difference between the subject of the contractand the content of the obligation and uses such concepts as synonyms. The French legislator does not give a general concept, whichwould reveal the main features of the copyright agreement. However, the provisions of the French Intellectual Property Code directlyindicate the possibility of assignment of the author’s property rights (succession in a certain part of copyright) on the basis of the cont -ract. In the French literature and in the practice of courts it is unanimously recognized that from the point of view of general civil lawthe assignment of exclusive property copyrights is in principle a civil contract of sale of property, in turn a license is a civil contract ofproperty lease.The author also emphasizes that there is a necessity to regulate the conclusion of copyright agreements with all subjects of a cinematographicwork, which may have intellectual property rights in connection with the creation of such a work.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The modern European mechanism of author’s relations was defined in the article by authors. It was determined the achievements of European legislation on the convergence of legal and digital realities. The article deals with copyright issues on the Internet. The current state of development of the domestic music industry plays an important economic role. This is due, first of all, to the fact that the given sphere can generate a large part of incomes. Musical works accompany us in our daily lives. In particular, in most places on the streets music can be heard. However, the issue arises as to the legality of the use of the institution of this musical work, in particular the issue of infringement of the rights of authors and performers of such copyright and related rights. The era of the digital single market has the potential to distribute and scale to any work: the artist records his work, and furthermore, his work gains an unlimited number of listenings to an unlimited number of users. It is quite understandable the desire of the authors and performers to earn income from the music, but minimizing the number of reproductions of their work. It is for this reason that the question of finding the optimal and effective means of the legal protection of a work of music as an object of copyright and related rights is being updated, due to the need to align the national legal framework with the provisions of the legislation of the countries of the European Union. The object of the study is public relations, regarding the legal regulation of the protection and protection of a musical work as an object of copyright and related rights. The subject of the research is the legal norms of Ukraine and foreign countries, devoted to the problems of legal regulation of the protection and protection of a musical work as an object of copyright rights and related rights. Keywords: copyright and related rights, music, copyright, royalties.

Ferri, Delia, et Katie Donnellan. « The Implementation of the Marrakesh Treaty in the European Union : An Important Piece in the Accessibility Jigsaw ? » Legal Issues of Economic Integration 49, Issue 3 (1 juillet 2022) : 269–92. http://dx.doi.org/10.54648/leie2022013.
Texte intégralRésumé :
The Marrakesh Treaty to Facilitate Access to Published Works for Persons Who Are Blind, Visually Impaired, or Otherwise Print Disabled (Marrakesh Treaty) aims to enable the creation and cross-border exchange of copyrighted works in formats that are accessible to individuals with disabilities. To that end, it requires Contracting Parties to introduce a set of limitations and exceptions to existing copyright rules. Following Opinion 3/15 of the Court of Justice, the Marrakesh Treaty was concluded by the European Union (EU) on behalf of its Member States. It was implemented by means of a Directive governing the substantive rights of reproduction, distribution and making available of published works in accessible formats, and a Regulation governing the cross-border exchange of accessible format works with Third Countries, both based on Article 114 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). This article examines the role of the Marrakesh Directive and Regulation in enhancing access to printed material to persons with disabilities. In that connection, it discusses common trends and perceptions of such a Marrakesh framework on the basis of empirical research consisting of a set of semi-structured interviews conducted with key stakeholders across twelve Member States. It locates the Directive and Regulation within the growing body of EU legislation that aims to ensure accessibility of an array of materials, products and services for persons with disabilities, while driving forward economic integration. In doing so, it conceives of the Marrakesh Directive and Regulation as part of the broader remit of EU disability law, which is an emerging cross-cutting area of EU action. On the whole, this article argues that the Marrakesh Treaty and its implementing legislation contribute to the protection of the rights of persons with disabilities within the internal market, but form just one piece – albeit an important one – of the accessibility ‘jigsaw’.

Texte intégralRésumé :
With the frenetic pace of technological development in the area of global communications, it is no wonder that consumers and businesses are adopting and taking advantage of these technologies before they are fully mature. The law is being refined every day. Most recently, the Supreme Court granted certiorari to decide whether Congress's recent twenty-year extension of the term of copyright protection is constitutional. Hotly disputed topics include digital copyright and liability for trademark infringement from technologically-driven issues such as hyperlinking and metatag use. This move to the Internet, to our client's surprise, presented a variety of legal issues that must be dealt with. For example, who owns the data pertinent to these tenants? How does our client keep its server data secure? Who owns the copyrights and trademarks that will be used during the on-line sessions? After our client's initial foray into the U.S. market, what international issues arise when our client begins to service customers in the European Union or other countries? A closer inspection reveals that, with planning, our clients may embrace this move, because any "lurking dangers" may be avoided.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Abstract: Despite international and European cooperation, copyright law remains a predominantly national affair dominated by national policy. The article examines if this framework is up to the challenges presented by the Internet. Two problems are found: the laws of all the receiving countries apply to an Internet publications and these laws often differ substantially. This is so because states wish to remain free to draft national copyright policy and apply it to their public sphere. As a consequence, exemptions from copyright protection are not harmonized. Using the example of digital libraries and the problem of copyright-protected works whose right holders are unknown or unlocatable (so-called orphan works), the article demonstrates how divergence of laws impairs Internet-related use of copyrighted materials. As these orphan works cannot legally be used, an exemption from copyright protection may be warranted. However, to facilitate online distribution, an international approach is required. This article discusses the possibilities of such an approach by means of choice-of-law and harmonization and unification of copyright law in the European Union. Zusammenfassung: Trotz der internationalen und europäischen Zusammenarbeit verbleibt das Urheberrecht überwiegend eine nationale Angelegenheit, die durch nationale Grundsätze beherrscht wird. Dieser Beitrag untersucht, ob diese Grundstruktur den Herausforderungen, die das Internet mit sich bringt, gewachsen ist. Zwei Probleme können hier genannt werden: Die Gesetze aller Empfangsstaaten sind auf eine Veröffentlichung im Internet anwendbar, diese Gesetze aber unterscheiden sich oft erheblich voneinander. Der Grund hierfür liegt darin, dass die einzelnen Staaten die Freiheit haben möchten, um nationale Urheberrechtsgrundsätze zu konzipieren und in ihrer eigenen öffentlichen Bereich anzuwenden. Aus diesem Grund werden Ausnahmen von dem urheberrechtlichen Schutz nicht harmonisiert. Durch die Darstellung des Beispiels von digitalen Bibliotheken sowie des Problems von urheberrechtlich geschützten Werken, deren Rechtsinhaber unbekannt oder unauffindbar sind (sogenannte verwaiste werke, oder orphan works), soll in diesem Beitrag aufgezeigt werden, wie Unterschiede in den nationalen Rechtssystemen die mit dem Internet zusammenhängende Verwendung von urheberrechtlichen material beeinflussen. Da diese orphan works nicht legal verwendet werden können, könnte eine Ausnahme vom urheberrechtlichen Schutz in diesen Fällen berechtigt sein. Um allerdings die Online-Verbreitung zu fördern, ist eine internationale Vorgehensweise zwingend erforderlich. Dieser Beitrag erläutert die Möglichkeit einer solchen Vorgehensweise durch die Regelung der Rechtswahl sowie die Harmonisierung und die Vereinheitlichung des Urheberrechts in der Europäischen Union.

Alexandria : The Journal of National and International Library and Information Issues 27, no 1 (13 février 2017) : 4–9. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0955749017691379.
Texte intégralRésumé :
A review is provided of the current state of play for the Marrakesh Treaty providing exceptions to copyright, allowing those with visual disabilities or organisations acting on their behalf to make accessible copies of works, in order to assist those with such visual disabilities. A key feature of this Treaty is the fact that it is the first international copyright treaty that gives users, as opposed to copyright holders, explicit rights that cannot be overridden by contract or by technical protection measures. Another key feature is that it provides users with the possibility of receiving ‘accessible copies’ of works from abroad. The current situation regarding implementation of the Treaty with 88 countries signing up to it, but only 25 so far having ratified it, is provided, together with an analysis of the position in the European Union (EU) and an analysis of the United Kingdom’s curiously inconsistent attitude towards the Treaty, when compared to its own even more generous provisions for those with all disabilities, not just visual ones. An explanation of this inconsistent approach – the intense euroscepticism of the UK Government leading to its unwillingness to let the EU pass directives, together with the manner in which the problem has been bypassed by the European Court of Justice – is given.

Texte intégralRésumé :
In the BRICS Member States, serious attention is paid to Information Technology development in terms of both technology and law. These countries are at the forefront in the development of the digital economy and digital innovations. Cloud storage software is an important element in this sector and is intensively applied in civil law transactions. The processes of approval, storage and sorting of documents are being automated on the basis of the relevant computer programs. This helps companies and government agencies to systemize their operations. At present, the most pressing issues are those related to copyright and copyright holders of computer programs since software code may be copied, even illegally or unconscientiously, and used as the basis for another software product. Cloud storage software is copyright-protected, but, depending on the scope of its use, additional patent protection may be required. Given the rapid development of the IT sector, a software product may be one of the components in an invention subject to patenting. The article focuses on the relationship between copyright and patent protection of software and offers a comparison of the approaches taken by the BRICS countries. Approaches taken by Germany as a European Union Member State and the United States of America are shown in the all-out comparison. The article also analyzes the views of academics on the relationship between copyright and patent protection of software.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Human creativity flourishes in a suitable environment, which is provided by the existence of an efficient legal system of copyright protection. In general, copyright is protected on national basis therefore the scope of protection and the requirements that must be met to ensure the protection of works and creations, differ from one country to another. Albania has its own legislation for copyright protection, as most of European countries. This paper is a historical overview of copyright legislation development in Albania. History has undeniable impact in a country's legislation. So, Albanian copyright legislation has been changed and improved from stages to stages. Copyright has found protection in Albania’s legislation, initially during the time of King Zog’s Ist (1925-1939) Reign. The Civil Code (1929) marks the first strands of copyright protection in Albania. This Code is referred to the best European legislations of the time. During the communist regime private intellectual creations and works could not be privately owned. The copyright belonged to the state. The government and the totalitarian Albanian state of that time decided to reproduce the work, or allow translation into foreign languages as well as the creation of derivative works. The Civil Code of the Republic of Albania (1981) came into force with new provisions that provided recognition and protection of copyright. After the collapse of the communism the recognition of private property was re-appeared. The authors and creators became owners of their works/performances. Firstly, Albanian Parliament adopted the law no. 7564, dated 19.05.1992 “On copyright”. Thirteen years later, the parliament enacted the Law no. 9380, dated 28.04.2005 “On copyright and other rights related to” that incorporated the provisions of the European Union Directives on Copyright Protection. Currently, the protection of copyright is provided even through some provisions of other legal acts, such as: Constitution of the Republic of Albania (1998), law no.7961/1995 “On the Labor Code of the Republic of Albania” (amended), Law no. 7895 /1995 “Criminal Code of the Republic of Albania” (amended), Law no. 7859 /1994 “On the Civil Code of the Republic of Albania” (amended) etc. In addition to the national legislation, Albania has ratified a number of international acts, which intend to protect copyright etc.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article contains an analysis of the legal aspects of protecting the image of natural persons in Poland. The paper aims to compare image protection in the light of the provisions of the GDPR and Polish copyright law. The reform of the personal data protection system in the European Union countries and the entry into force of the provisions of the GDPR have led to the increased awareness of individuals regarding the need to protect their data, with particular emphasis on the image. At that time, it was necessary to change the approach to protecting the image which was previously protected under copyright law for a long time. The analysis was prepared using three research methods - institutional and legal method (analysis of normative acts), factor analysis (isolation of adequate factors affecting image protection), and a comparative method (comparison of GDPR and Polish copyright). The presented considerations lead to the conclusion that the entry into force of the provisions of the GDPR had a real impact on the protection of the image of natural persons in Poland constituting a supplement to copyright law. The article is scientific analysis, at the same time the author presents practical aspects of image protection with particular emphasis on the progressing popularization of modern technologies.

Samuelson, Pamela. « Pushing Back on Stricter Copyright ISP Liability Rules ». Michigan Technology Law Review, no 27.2 (2021) : 299. http://dx.doi.org/10.36645/mtlr.27.2.pushing.
Texte intégralRésumé :
For more than two decades, internet service providers (ISPs) in the United States, the European Union (EU), and many other countries have been shielded from copyright liability under “safe harbor” rules. These rules apply to ISPs who did not know about or participate in user-uploaded infringements and who take infringing content down after receiving notice from rights holders. Major copyright industry groups were never satisfied with these safe harbors, and their dissatisfaction has become more strident over time as online infringements have grown to scale. Responding to copyright industry complaints, the EU in 2019 adopted its Directive on Copyright and Related Rights in the Digital Single Market. In particular, the Directive’s Article 17 places much stricter obligations on for-profit ISPs that host large amounts of user contents. Article 17 is internally contradictory, deeply ambiguous, and harmful to small and medium-sized companies as well as to user freedoms of expression. Moreover, Article 17 may well violate the European Charter of Fundamental Rights. In the United States, Congress commenced a series of hearings in 2020 on the safe harbor rules now codified as 17 U.S.C. § 512 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). In May 2020, the U.S. Copyright Office issued its long-awaited study on Section 512, which recommended several significant changes to existing safe harbor rules. The Study’s almost exclusively pro–copyright industry stances on reform of virtually every aspect of the rules notably shortchanges other stakeholder interests. Congress should take a balanced approach in considering any changes to the DMCA safe harbor rules. Any meaningful reform of ISP liability rules should consider the interests of a wide range of stakeholders. This includes U.S.-based Internet platforms, smaller and medium-sized ISPs, startups, and the hundreds of millions of Internet users who create and enjoy user-generated content (UGC) uploaded to these platforms, as well as the interests of major copyright industries and individual creators who have been dissatisfied with the DMCA safe harbor rules.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article is devoted to the study of the main aspects of international protection of intellectual rights. The authors consider a number of international conventions and treaties, as well as the main provisions of cooperation between WIPO and the WTO under the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. International treaties form a network that serves all member states, depriving them of the opportunity to act arbitrarily, at their discretion. They establish common norms and standards of IP protection, deviation from which is punishable by sanctions. By signing such treaties, states agree to partially abandon their own IP laws and follow the path of convergence with the laws of other countries. Such agreements exist for almost all categories of IP. The international system of public administration procedures in the field of intellectual property today is based on two conventions concluded in the late XIX century: Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property of 20 March 1883 (Paris Convention) and the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works of 9 September 1886 (Berne Convention). These two Conventions played a fundamental role in the subsequent development of legal institutions. In the modern world, a certain system of international legal regulation of related rights has already developed, which directly affects the European related law, since, in particular, the norms of international law form the basis of the legal system of the European Union, and form international, including European, standards of intellectual property rights, including copyright and related rights. The main institutions dealing with IP protection on a global scale are the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). All member states of the European Union, as well as the European Community are members of the WTO organization, which has gained great importance in the field of intellectual property in connection with the adoption of the TRIPS Agreement. The reason that prompted states to choose a forum other than WIPO to negotiate this agreement was the growing dissatisfaction with the existing contrast between the precision, elegance, even sophistication of the treaty documents that were negotiated at WIPO and the inadequacy of the means to ensure the practical implementation and uniform interpretation of these treaties in different countries. The TRIPS Agreement addresses five important issues: the principles of the trade system and international agreements on intellectual property, the minimum level of protection of intellectual property rights, measures to enforce these rules, the procedure for resolving disputes in the field of intellectual property, as well as transitional measures during the implementation of the systems. Ukraine is a party to more than 50 multilateral and bilateral international treaties on intellectual property. Therefore, it is advisable to determine the role of international standards in the system of intellectual property rights protection as integral components of the national legal system in Ukraine. This has become especially important since 24.02.2022 due to the outbreak of a full-scale war on the territory of Ukraine. The occupation of the territory of Ukraine by Russian invaders and the theft of industrial infrastructure, cultural heritage, art objects, which are also objects of intellectual property. Absolutization of copyright and related rights protection does not automatically mean bringing such protection to international standards. Recently, in Europe and the United States there has been an understanding of the need to find a consensus between the interests of copyright and related rights holders and the interests of society for access to cultural heritage. It is necessary to amend the legislation of Ukraine in order to harmonize the interests of copyright and related rights holders and the interests of society for access to cultural heritage, in the context of introducing only the minimum requirements of international legal acts for the protection of copyright and related rights and simplifying access to copyright and related rights.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article deals with the peculiarities of protection against plagiarism of works posted on the Internet and the peculiarities of their protection by Ukrainian copyright compared with US legislation.
The ratio of features of the computer program as an object of copyright protection is analyzed. After all, the program derived from the algorithm and is in a sense, its equivalent. This means that some basic features of algorithms are inherent in programs. The program can also be considered as a means of implementing an algorithm, and as such, characterized by certain distinct features from which for the purposes of the program research as an object of copyright protection can be distinguished: unlike the algorithm, which is a sequence of logical-mathematical Transformation operations, the program contains a sequence of commands that describe the process of implementing an algorithm and provide control of this process. The objective form of expression of the program is its recording formalized language of simultaneous computers.
It is determined that the protection of computer programs by copyright norms, is a great theoretical and practical curiosity as the simplest and economical.
The jurisdictional and non-legal forms of protection of patent law are characterized, the main ways of protecting intellectual property rights are clarified. The emphasis on the judicial prohibition as a way of protecting intellectual property rights is analyzed by the international index of property rights, in particular the level of protection of intellectual property rights in Ukraine and in the United States. The fact of a low indicator of protection of intellectual property rights in our country is established compared to European countries. The main issues of protection of intellectual property rights in Ukraine are highlighted. It is emphasized the need to adapt national legislation to the legal system of the European Union. There are a number of international treaties regulating intellectual property relations at the international level. The European integration course of Ukraine indicates its desire to adapt their legal system to European standards, and therefore, concluding an Association Agreement with the EU, Ukraine has undertaken to harmonize its intellectual property legislation with European legislation. The provisions of a number of European legal acts regulating the issue of protecting intellectual property rights are given. Problems of collecting evidence base for violation of intellectual property rights remains open issues as a national judicial practice on this issue. It is necessary to create a specialized judiciary that would consider cases of violation of intellectual property rights, including on the Internet. It is necessary to enhance legal responsibility for violations in the field of intellectual property, in particular regarding the distribution of pirate products.

Keywords: artificial intelligence, intellectual property law, copyright, industrialproperty law, computer programs
In Poland, as in other countries, there is an ongoing discussion on legal issues related to artificial intelligence. Formany people, there is no doubt that this intelligence should be protected. The problem rather narrows down to what conditions must be met for this protection. Some Polish scientists want to wait for solutions to be developed in the European Union.Poland, as a member state of the European Union, must respect the regulations emerging at the EU level. These regulations are only being planned. There is a certain risk in introducing new regulations in Poland without waiting for EU solutions.It could turn out that the laws adopted by Poland would be incompatible, not in compliance with European law.On the other hand, the software producers' communities are pushing for the introductionof relevant legislation now. They claim that this is needed to protect the funds that are being invested in artificial intelligence in Poland. In their view, without proper legislation, investors will reduce financial support for the developmentof artificial intelligence. In fact, however, the computer manufacturers' communityis not at all concerned with protecting 'mere' artificial intelligence. It is protected in Poland and can be provided by copyright law in particular. The most important issue in Poland already relates to the protection of creations generatedby artificial intelligence. This is in fact what the computer software development community and beyond cares most about.However, the protection of creations of artificial intelligence is not only about benefits, but also about threats. This will be discussed further in the article. Some lawyers are considering how to interpret the existing legislation so that the protectionof artificial intelligence creations is already possible. They want to use existing theoretical constructs to justify this protection.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Royalties and copyright as an economic category and topical legal terms scored in the 20th century, while improving the country's fiscal policy and differentiating tax items; the usage of economic categories of "royalties" expands and becomes important. To be able to compare how royalties beneficiaries comply with legislative acts and requirements relating to the taxation of another European Union Member State, the author compares the taxation in Latvia and Estonia. In 2018, an ambitious tax reform has been implemented in both countries.The aim of the research: to conduct a comparative study on tax requirements and issues related to royalties in Latvia and Estonia. To achieve the aim of the research, the monographic method, the methods of comparative and analytical analysis, and the grouping and graphic methods were used additionally. In the result of the research study, the author concluded that, despite the unification of tax systems in the Baltic States, the regulatory framework is different in both countries. Estonian taxpayers' tax burden in respect of royalties is significantly higher than that of the Latvian income recipient

Texte intégralRésumé :
The article is devoted to the analysis of the draft Law of Ukraine on Copyright and Related Rights registration number 5552-4 dated 09.06.2021 (hereinafter the Draft) for the use of evaluation concepts as a language tool of rule-drafting technique. The definition of evaluation concept is given. It is stated that the use of evaluation concepts is not only a property of domestic law, but also legislation of other countries. Attention is drawn to the fact that their introduction into the texts of legislative acts is objectively inevitable, provides individualization of legal regulation and the fullest protection of the rights and interests of the subject of law, but creates conditions for possible subjective law enforcement discretion. Therefore, the quality of the Draft is determined by the proper use of evaluation concepts.
The list of evaluation concepts used in the text of the Draft is defined. The latter are compared with the corresponding concepts used in the Association Agreement between Ukraine, on the one hand, and the European Union, the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, on the other hand (Chapter 9 «Intellectual Property») and Section 1 «Copyright and Related Rights» of Part 2 of the WTO Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. The conclusion is made that there is a certain correspondence and obvious regularity of the use of evaluation concepts both in the Draft and the mentioned legal acts. Many of these concepts are completely or partially duplicated, such as the «fair reward» and «normal use».
In order to promote the proper use of evaluation concepts in the text of the Draft by its designers a list of prerequisites for their introduction into the developed regulations is proposed.
It is noted that the presence of evaluation concepts in the text of normative legal acts necessitates the observance of certain rules of interpretation and application of evaluation norms. A systematic list of such rules, which in the long run will contribute to the effective use of future law to ensure the rights of intellectual property holders, is proposed.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Since February 26, 2020, when coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic emerged in Karachi City and rapidly spread throughout Pakistan, the disease has affected more than 6200 people and more than 111 deaths have been reported till April 15. If we compare the disasters of COVID-19 in Pakistan with other countries like China, Iran and European Union nations, so many questions arise. We have so many challenges in controlling this pandemic like the geopolitics of country, poverty, low literacy rate, environmental conditions, hygienic conditions, and food intake habits. In all these aspects, there are poor conditions but the outbreak of COVID-19 in Pakistan was slower than other developing countries. Pakistan’s humid condition, hot weather, early response to COVID-19, population immune system, BCG vaccination and the number of young people favors to attenuate the impact of COVID-19. In this paper, we discuss the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic in China, Iran and Pakistan and share day-by-day developments in this pandemic. We present the structure of COVID-19 and its similarity with SARSCOV and SARS-COV2. We also discuss the treatment procedure like use of Remdesivir (an adenosine similarity) used against RNA viruses, Chloroquine (extensively used anti-malarial drug), convalescent plasma, neutralizing antibody targeting the ACE-2 receptor and ACE-2-like molecule that might bind to the S protein of the coronavirus and disadvantages of the discussed medications. The impact of COVID-19 in the economics of Pakistan and government reliefs are also discussed.

Keywords: protection of intellectual property rights, European Union, integrationof Ukraine and the EU, enforcement of intellectual property, copyright protection
The modern development of EU intellectual property law in2017-2022 is studied. The active role of the European Commission in analysing the effectivenessof EU acts and determining plans for the development of the sphere of intellectualproperty in the EU is noted. Attention is drawn to the expediency of usingEuropean Commission documents within the framework of the integration of Ukraineand the EU regarding IP (IP action plan, COM/2020/760 final; IP enforcement system,COM(2017) 707 final; guidance on Directive 2004/48 /EC, COM(2017) 708 final,standard essential patents», COM(2017) 712 final etc; evaluation of design designsprotection, 2020; system of supplementary protection certificate, 2020; geographicalindications protection, 2020 etc.The essential importance of the DSM Directive (EU) 2019/790 with introduction ofa sustainable system of payment the fair remuneration to authors and performers aswell revocation mechanism regarding licence or the transfer of rights where there is alack of exploitation of that work, and the relevance of the implementation of theseprovisions in the legislation of Ukraine are emphasized.It is relevant to take into account the Guidance of the Commission on Directive2004/48/EC, in particular, that the right holder could demand that the damages set asa lump sum are calculated not only because of the single amount of that hypotheticalroyalty/fee, but also based on other appropriate aspects. Regarding Commission evaluationof the Regulations (EC) No. 469/2009 and No. 1610/96 concerning the supplementaryprotection certificate for medicinal products and plant protection products, itis relevant to take into consideration in the legislation of Ukraine not only the provisionsof the specified regulations, but also the decisions of the ECJ on the interpretationof the specified acts.
Regarding geographical indication protection for craft and industrial products inthe EU-registration of GI for non-agricultural products is possible in Ukraine. However,the activities of the ministries need to be particularly strengthened, consideringthe experience of Poland, Moldova and other countries that envisage support fromgovernment authorities for the identification of promising geographical indications,assistance in creating associations of individuals to submit GI applications and in thepreparation of applications, as well as stimulating activities for the protection of GI.The relevance of the adoption in Ukraine of the Strategy for the Development ofthe Intellectual Property Sphere in Ukraine, which was developed in cooperation withWIPO back in 2019 and contains European oriented guidelines for the development ofthe sphere of intellectual property in Ukraine, is noted.

Texte intégralRésumé :
One of the main goals of intellectual property rights is to ensure financial protection of intellectual property rights of the rightsholder in case of violation. The article analyses the international experience of damages valuation criteria application for measuring losses through illegal exploitation of intellectual property (patents, trademarks, copyrights, etc.). The ability to make preliminary damage measuring due to the illegal use of intellectual property helps make better litigation choices. It is crucial to understand the basic approaches and damages valuation criteria in determining material loss. On the one hand, it helps the rightsholder make an informed and optimal decision to recover a reasonable amount of compensation in court. On the other hand, understanding the approach to determining damages affects the type and number of witnesses, facts, and experts involved in defending the case. Authors consider approaches and damage criteria for assessing the loss caused to rightsholders on the example of the European Union, the United States, and Colombia. It is shown that the same criteria are used in different countries for damages: lost benefit of the rightsholder; the profit of the offender; lump sum damage and/or hypothetical (“reasonable”) royalties; compensation established by law; coverage of other indirect losses. However, applying these criteria in different countries is different for the reimbursement of different types of intellectual property rights. The international experience analysis of damages valuation criteria application for measuring losses through intellectual property illegal exploitation allows to improve the normative-legal field in Ukraine and create a national methodology of damages measuring caused by illegal exploitation of the intellectual property.

Texte intégralRésumé :
At the present stage of the society’s development the artificial intelligence is quickly widening its possibilities. These changes raise the issue of applying norms, including international law norms, to solve problems connected with the essence and technical protocol of using artificial intelligence. The article is devoted to the problems of legal regulation of the creation and use of artificial intelligence and the development of the conceptual framework and the definition of artificial intelligence according to the widely recognized scientific theories; the analysis of doctrinal approaches to the understanding of the place of artificial intelligence in legal relations; the evidence that giving artificial intelligence the status of a person is not legally grounded; the critical analysis of the ideas put forward by some American researchers that artificial intelligence should comply with the whole set of laws currently used for its human producer and operator. The authors study the legislation on the legal regulation of relations between the human and artificial intelligence in such countries as the Republic of Korea, the USA, Japan, the People’s Republic of China, the Republic of Estonia, the Federal Republic of Germany and the Russian Federation, as well as the European Union. They present various approaches to the classification of artificial intelligence’s features. The authors also examine the problem of defining the legal personality of an «electronic person»; analyze the necessity of making the owner liable for the compensation of moral and material damage inflicted by the «electronic person». The article also discusses key problems of enforcing the legal norms regulating intellectual property and copyright, criminal liability and participation in criminal proceedings within the framework of using artificial intelligence. The authors analyze key risks and uncertainties connected with artificial intelligence and crucial for improving relevant legislation. They work out suggestions for the future discussion of the following issues: the applications of artificial intelligence at the contemporary stage; development prospects in this sector; legally relevant problems researched of this sphere and the problems connected with the use of the existing and the development of new autonomous intelligence systems; the development of new strategies and legal norms to bridge the gaps in the legal regulation of using artificial intelligence, including using it as a participant in criminal proceedings; creation of the concept of liability in the sphere of using artificial intelligence, including the criminal one.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This article reveals the peculiarity of the legal regulation of copyright as a component of intellectual property in the legal system of the European Union, primarily through the prism of the study of the stages of its formation and development.
Within the framework of this article, the stages of formation and development of the copyright institution from the time of the founding of the European Economic Community to the present time were investigated. Important attention is paid to the study of copyright regulation in the provisions of the founding treaties of the European Union, in particular in the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, the Treaty on the European Union (Maastricht Treaty), the Treaty of Amsterdam, the Treaty of Nice, the Treaty of Lisbon and the sources of "secondary law" of the European Union, in particular, directives, regulations, decisions of the European Parliament and the Council on the harmonization of intellectual property rights of the member states of the European Union.
The position is argued, according to which at the initial stages of the formation of the legal system of the European Union in terms of the legal regulation of copyright, an approach was used, according to which the legal acts did not establish direct requirements for its legal regulation and instead established provisions that would contribute to the formation of the functioning of the common market of the European Union. It is noted that parallel to the "primary sources" of the European Union, the sources of "secondary law" were formed. It was noted that a special place in the legal regulation of copyright in the European Union was played by the directives, which, being binding on the member states to which they were addressed, left the freedom of choice of the form and methods of their implementation to the national bodies of the latter.
In order to achieve the goal, the author used the methods characteristic of legal science. The research was conducted primarily using the historical-legal, comparative-legal, formal-legal method and the dialectical method of learning legal reality.
On the basis of the conducted research, the author comes to the conclusion that the law of the European Union is characterized by a rather exhaustive list of sources, their hierarchy, as a result of which this law is well organized, systematized and internally agreed. It was established that the formation of European intellectual property rights took place on the one hand under the influence of international law, and on the other hand, the peculiarities of the legal regulation of copyright in the member states.

Texte intégralRésumé :
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyse the effect of six governance indicators on the rate of creation of new companies between countries that are members of the European Union (EU) and those that are not. H1 states that the various dimensions of governance help to explain the immediate creation of new businesses in European and non-European countries. H2 states that the various dimensions of governance help to explain the deferred creation of new businesses in European and non-European countries. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses two types of analyses: firstly, univariate analysis, which is a descriptive statistics of the dependent, independent and control variables, and the results of a t-test; and secondly, multivariate analysis, which estimates using the fixed-effects estimator under the specifications previously raised for the subsample of 28 EU countries and for the subsample of 103 non-EU countries during the period 2004-2014. Findings The results show that the variables of governance are not significantly higher in the EU, although the density of the enterprises is. Within the governance indicators, government effectiveness is significant in the EU. The results obtained for the EU confirmed H1and H2, with a significant positive effect of government effectiveness on entrepreneurship, while the other governance variables were not significant in the EU subsample. The results obtained for non-EU countries suggest no significant immediate effects (H1) and a slightly significant delayed effect of rule of law on the entrepreneurship (H2) concerned. Research limitations/implications Future research in this area could consider introducing another regional division or other types of methodology as variables affect models. Practical implications Governance can be defined as the ability of a government and its public institutions to provide services and design, and implement rules, which is a factor that affects the creation of new companies. However, the effect of governance could differ depending on the country and its economic environment. This paper analyses the effect of six governance indicators on the rate of creation of new companies considering two different geographic regions as countries are presumably heterogeneous. Therefore, these results indicate that the effect of governance variables on entrepreneurship differs according to the region. Social implications The effect of governance variables on entrepreneurship according to the region is also known. Originality/value This study applied panel data analysis to two samples of countries during the period 2004-2014, one formed by 28 countries of the EU and the other by 103 non-EU countries. No other paper considers this number of countries for this period. To assess the impact of governance on the creation of new companies, this paper considered the existence of immediate and deferred effects of governance on entrepreneurship.

Despite twenty years of directives and ECJ case law, the copyright system in the European Union is still fragmented and ill-adapted. This paper provides an insight into the Wittem Group’s European Copyright Code, established in 2002, the first draft European copyright codification. The aim of the Wittem Copyright Code is to increase the overall protection of authors and to provide a new, holistic approach to copyright. The paper presents useful clarification of the meaning of specific provisions in the European Copyright Code, and particularly of the concepts of “The Work” and “Authorship”.

Texte intégralRésumé :
This study utilizes the dynamic data envelopment analysis (DEA) model by considering time to measure the energy environmental efficiency of 28 countries in the European Union (EU) during the period 2006–2013. There are three kinds of variables: input, output, and carry-over. The inputs are labor, capital, and energy consumption (EC). The undesirable outputs are greenhouse gas emissions (GHE) and sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions, and the desirable output variable is gross domestic product (GDP). The carry-over variable is gross capital formation (GCF). The empirical results show that first the dynamic DEA model can measure environment efficiency and provide optimum improvement for inefficient countries, as more than half of the EU countries should improve their environmental efficiency. Second, the average overall scores of the EU countries point out that the better period of performance is from 2009 to 2012. Third, the output variables of GHE, SOx, and GDP exhibit a significant impact on environmental efficiency. Finally, the average value of others is significantly better than high renewable energy utilization (HRE) with the Wilcoxon test. Thus, the EU’s strategy for environmental energy improvement should be to pay attention to the benefits of renewable energy (RE) utilization, reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHE), and enhancing the development of RE utilization to help achieve the goal of lower GHE.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The aim of the study was to compare the total greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union countries and their emission efficiency. Emission efficiency was calculated as the ratio of emission volume and value to gross value added generated by the economy of a given country (size of the economy). The necessary statistical data was obtained from Eurostat. It was found that in 2015 most of greenhouse gases were emitted by: Germany, United Kingdom, Poland, France and Italy. At the same time, France and the United Kingdom were characterized by one of the best emission efficiency in the European Union, Germany and Italy obtained average results, while Poland was in the group of countries with the lowest emission efficiency. Therefore, it can be concluded, that the volume of emissions is significantly affected by the size of the economy. Some large emitters have economies based on relatively “clean” technologies and thus their potential to further reduction is not very high. The reverse is true for some low-emission countries, such as Estonia and Bulgaria. This indicates the need for a more comprehensive look at the problem of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

There is a large disproportion in the state of food security between individual European Union countries, especially between old and new EU countries. It was determined that in the analyzed years average prices of products and their quality deteriorated in the countries of the European Union. The unfavorable changes that have taken place were not too great. On the other hand, the average indicator for the analyzed countries regarding access to food has clearly improved.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The subject of this empirical and theoretical work is the exchange of foreign trade in Libya with the countries of the European Union. The scientific objective of the research is to make a scientific classification of the volume of foreign trade between Libya and the European Union countries and to discover the factors that hinder foreign trade and explain them scientifically. European countries also support this cooperation and contribute significantly to the formulation of future cooperation policies with Libya in various social, political, and economic fields. However, this cooperation takes place in light of objective difficulties arising from the conflicting interests of Western countries in North Africa and Libya. Since these relations are burdened with many problems of different nature, we started this paper from two assumptions: The first premise is that in the trade relations between Libya and the European Union, there are common interests for foreign trade that are more feasible. The second premise is that more encouragement and protection for investments by the countries of the European Union helps in new qualitative development and economic growth in Libya, which will significantly improve trade relations between Libya and the countries of the European Union.

Texte intégralRésumé :
The aim of this paper is to analyse tax revenues and examine similarities of selected tax revenues (mainly VAT, CIT, PIT and excise duty) in the European Union countries. The analysis of the EU members concerns the period between 2003 (i.e. the year preceding the biggest enlargement of the EU) and 2012 (due to data completeness). Tax rates and the structure of tax revenues in the EU countries were compared and then the cluster analysis was applied to assess the similarity of tax revenues. The analysis suggests that the process of tax harmonization, which took place in the period considered, did not exert a significant impact on the similarity of the structure of tax revenues in the EU countries. The structure seems to be still determined by e.g. social, economic or historical factors, which influenced the tax systems creation in particular EU countries.
