RESUMO: O trabalho objetivou investigar o entendimento de alguns autores quanto ao assunto, além de estudar o que são os direitos fundamentais ligados aos direitos da personalidade e direito à imagem e o que as doutrinas hodiernas falam sobre considerar direitos da personalidade direitos fundamentais, no âmbito do Direito Civil e no Direito da Propriedade Intelectual. Muito se tem discutido se o Direito à Imagem e de personalidade estariam no campo de proteção do Direito Civil ou no Direito da Propriedade Intelectual, com base no que dispõe o caput do art. 24 da Lei de Direitos Autorais que dispõe sobre a proteção aos direitos morais do autor, inclusive o de se manter no anonimato, através das obras pseudônimas ou de não ver publicado certas obras por este escritas, mantendo-as inéditas ou escritas por outras pessoas, mas que digam respeito a sua pessoa. O STF em decisão unânime declarou inexigível o consentimento de pessoa biografada relativamente a obras biográficas literárias ou audiovisuais. A problemática residiu na possibilidade da existência desses direitos e na possibilidade da tutela transversal, onde o uso não autorizado de imagem encontra limitações firmadas pela doutrina e jurisprudência, como a exploração econômica da vítima que teve suas obras expostas na mídia sem autorização e, a depender do conteúdo, a denegrição da imagem. Concluiu-se que os direitos supramencionados são frutos de uma evolução jurídica em que os sistemas jurídicos contemporâneos se constituem com o dos Direitos estudados. Para tanto se utilizou do método de revisão bibliográfica qualitativa de abordagem dedutiva.PALAVRAS CHAVE: Direitos autorais, Direitos morais do autor, Responsabilidade civil. Right to Image and the Right to Personality: a parallel between Civil Law and Intellectual Property Law ABSTRACT: This work aims to investigate the understanding of some authors on the subject, as well as to study what are the fundamental rights related to personality rights and the right to image and what current doctrines speak about considering rights of personality fundamental rights in the scope of Law Civil and Intellectual Property Law. Much has been debated whether the Right to Image and personality would be in the field of protection of Civil Law or Intellectual Property Law, based on what the caput of art. 24 of the Copyright Law that provides for the protection of the author's moral rights, including to remain anonymous, through pseudonymous works or not to see published works by this writing, keeping them unpublished or written by other people, but which concern your person. The STF in a unanimous decision declared the consent of a person biographical in relation to biographical literary or audiovisual works unenforceable. The problem lies in the possibility of the existence of these rights and in the possibility of transverse protection, where the unauthorized use of image has limitations established by the doctrine and jurisprudence, such as the economic exploitation of the victim who had his works exposed in the media without authorization and depending of content, denigrating the image. It is concluded that the above rights are the result of a legal evolution in which the contemporary legal systems are constituted with the rights studied. For this purpose, the method of qualitative bibliographical review of the deductive approach will be used.KEYWORDS: Copyright, Author's moral rights, Civil liability.

Abstract Historically, Iraqi law has followed the Latin approach in the ambit of civil law, while English law is the creator of the ‘common law approach’. This has had an effect on the Iraqi doctrine for the protection of works in the field of intellectual property law. Therefore, Iraqi author rights have followed French law which grants authors many, in particular moral, rights on their works whilst English law restricts the rights of the author in kind of the moral rights. However, both laws grant authors important ‘paternity rights’ that prevent anyone from using a work without first receiving license from the author. Due to its importance in both laws, this article will try to explain paternity rights and its differences in Iraqi and English laws. This article will examine the scope paternity rights under both systems of law.

In this paper, the author analyzes the benefits and limitationsof international arbitration in disputes that are subject to intellectual propertyrights. Intellectual property law disputes have special characteristics. In theevent of a dispute with an international element, there is a problem with thejurisdiction of state courts due to the principle of the territoriality of intellectualproperty rights. The titular of the right must initiate court proceedings in allcountries individually, leading to delays in procedures, multiplication of costsand uneven judicial practice. For these reasons, the author analyzes alternativedispute resolution through arbitration to determine whether this method ofdispute resolution is more acceptable to foreign courts.The author particularly pays attention to the WIPO Center for Arbitrationand Mediation as a permanent arbitration institution whose primary activity isthe resolution of disputes in the field of intellectual property rights.

Transfer Of Information

In the wake of increasing globalization and technical advancements in the digital field, the dissemination of creative work has become easier than ever. However, this development has come with its own set of challenges, particularly for Intellectual Property Law, as most of online transfer of information is unregulated. Digitalization has lead to the imminent need for standardized and stringent protection of an author‟s work. While this protection is mainly conceived as commercial right of the author on his work, there is another fundamental element to it, which is equally important and cannot be neglected, i.e., moral rights. These rights include right of attribution and integrity and are so inextricably related, that they stay with the author, even after transfer of economic rights on the work. In order to ensure effective globalized protection, there is a requirement for minimum standards of protection in all domestic laws, as was provided in the TRIPS agreement. This paper analyzes the Moral Rights regime as envisaged by the TRIPS agreement, and the monoist and dualist approaches that have been adopted by different countries. It also analyzes the evolution of moral rights in India.

AbstractHaving huge power grids successfully integrate sustainable energy sources requires a smart and flexible power grid management system. Such smart systems have to adapt fast and accurately to a great amount of data input – a task which is made easier by applying modern machine learning technology. Solutions crafted by dynamic and powerful computing algorithms have the potential to surpass human cognitive capabilities. The question arises whether and how intellectual property law can be used to set the right incentives. This paper initially describes the basic functions of smart grids and the corresponding necessity of machine learning. Subsequently, it will analyze the current approaches of the most relevant patent offices in dealing with the challenges of AI-related smart grid inventions. Ultimately, it will be demonstrated that the contemporary discussions fail to focus on practical considerations of market entry possibilities that might be more promising than the approach of creating new exclusionary intellectual property rights.

Contemporary Context

Australia introduced moral rights legislation in December 2000, giving effect to a doctrine that originated in civil law jurisdictions in the eighteenth century. The rights given effect to in Australia are the right of integrity, which allows the author to prevent derogatory treatment of their work, and the right of attribution, which mandates attribution of the author when the work is reproduced, published or otherwise communicated to the public. There is also the right to prevent false attribution of authorship. This article looks at the historical development of moral rights and examines why such an amendment to the law in Australia was necessary in a contemporary context. It discusses the implications of this amendment for the media and other industries.

The recent rapid development of COVID-19 vaccines offers hope in addressing the worst pandemic in a hundred years. However, many countries in the Global South face great difficulties in accessing vaccines, partly because of restrictive intellectual property law. These laws exacerbate both global and domestic inequalities and prevent countries from fully realising the right to health for all their people. Commodification of essential medicines, such as vaccines, pushes poorer countries into extreme debt and reproduces national inequalities that discriminate against marginalised groups. This article explains how a decolonial framing of human rights and public health could contribute to addressing this systemic injustice. We envisage a human rights and global health law framework based on solidarity and international cooperation that focuses funding on long-term goals and frees access to medicines from the restrictions of intellectual property law. This would increase domestic vaccine production, acquisition and distribution capabilities in the Global South.
