Market Relations

A large variety of market relations are regulated by intellectual property rights, which represent legitimate monopolies correcting certain inefficiencies of a profit distribution on the market. In the following paper, the author examines the relations between design right and copyright using the comparative method. Firstly the author will analyze both resemblances and differences between these two intellectual property rights. The resemblance in protection object in particular makes available the cumulation of protected rights, in other words, the possibility of protecting industrial design by copyright, which will also be analyzed in the paper. Such work aims to comprehend the hybrid nature of design right as a right usually bypassed in a legal theory, and which is, in the author's opinion, especially interesting.

Ip Law

A fundamental tenet of intellectual property law is that it is beneficial to give creators some measure of ownership over their creative or scientific works. New innovations in technology have changed the way works are created, but current IP law still lacks clarity regarding IP rights in works by non-human creators, including robots and animals. Legal scholarship has not reached a consensus on how principles of intellectual property can or should be applied, broadly, to works of non-human creators.In this study, we explore possible directions for the future of IP law, specifically involving works by non-human creators. We look at the (scant) legal precedent in these two realms and provide comparisons of the legal precedent and academic discourse surrounding each topic. Based on findings from this comparative analysis, we offer potential recommendations and future paths of research for the field of IP rights of non-human creators.
