First of all, the author’s attention is drawn to the increasing global trend towards synchronization of national regimes of protection of intellectual property rights, the starting point of which was made in the XIXth century with the adoption of the Berne Convention. The escalation of the problem in question is related to the Internet possibilities of instant data transfer to multiple remote users that leads to speed and a great scale of intellectual property results sharing. The author gives undeniable arguments that the search for solution of the problem of illegal use of works on the Internet will be a determining factor for the consolidation of the world community with the subsequent unification of legal regulation of cross-border copyright relations. The promising avenues of international cooperation in the examined field are the following: 1) creation of a global registry of Internet sites, access to which should be restricted because of intellectual property rights violations; 2) creation of a unified international database of copyright and related rights

The most complicated in its realization material and personnel author’s rights are investigated in the article. The authors pay special attention to the next intellectual property rights: defense of the honor, dignity and goodwill of the author; inviolability of the composition; follow right; right of remuneration (royalty) for the commercial usage of the composition. The right of inviolability of the composition is a non-material right of intellectual property according to Ukrainian legislation but as an exception may be defended by other persons which are not subject of this right. On the contrary with the right of inviolability the right to change composition is a kind of material right of the author, which may be inherited. But changes into authors composition without his agree may break authors right on the honor and dignity which nevertheless exist during the lifetime of the author. Personnel non-material rights are valid during one’s lifetime on the contrary to the personnel rights of intellectual property. Thus, it is worth to provide that right to change composition after the death of the author other than translation or adoption as non-transferring material right of the author.   Follow right is the inalienable author’s right for 5 % from the sale price of the original artistic composition. Civil code of Ukraine doesn’t reveal to which kinds of artistic compositions may be applied follow right except for fine art compositions. It is told about works of fiction but it doesn’t allow to distinguish which objects should be excluded from the follow right. Logic position and international practice show that architectural objects and objects of folk arts are not amongst those, which may be used follow right for. Right of remuneration (royalty) for the commercial usage of the composition is weakly regulated. The main trouble that on the contrary with many other countries Ukrainian legislation doesn’t anticipate an obliged payments for commercial usage of compositions to persons who owns a material intellectual property rights. Besides, the exceptional list of free cases of compositions using contains also kinds of using which may anticipate commercial aspects. Especially it’s relevant to parodies, potpourri and caricatures. Using in such way changed compositions as a rule gives some commercial benefit or profit from advertising in the Internet whilst video clip. Also such kinds of composition’s changes may break the author’s right on honor, dignity and goodwill as well as an inviolability of the composition. The authors propose to define strictly the amount of repeat in the literature and musical compositions, which will be recognized as plagiarism. Besides, legal relations between the authors and publishers and possible ways of legal regulation of their material rights division are investigated in the article.

Copyright is one of the intellectual property rights whose main activity is to promote creativity and protect the ownership of the author. However, these rights are not absolute and are subject to certain restrictions.In the Berne Convention, Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights and also WIPO Copyright Treaty embodied so-called “three-step test” allowing exceptions to copyright protection. They state that exceptions to copyright protection are admissible only in specific cases; if they comply with the rules of normal exploitation of the author's work; and do not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate rights of the author.While respecting the restrictions contained in international conventions, the Latvian Copyright Law also lays down various restrictions, when the author's work can be used without a special permit for the use of the author's work or for free, such as in the educational or research process. The free use of copyright-protected materials constitutes a restriction on the economic rights of copyright holders. These restrictions aim to strike a balance between the rights of the author and the interests of the public. Although copyright-protected works can be used in education almost everywhere in the world, restrictions on the exercise of these rights have not been clearly established.The aim of this paper is to research limits use of copyright-protected works in the educational process.

Keywords: recodification of the Civil Code of Ukraine, codification of legislation onintellectual property law, subject and method of intellectual property law The article examines the issues related to the possibility ofcodification of legislation in the field of intellectual property rights. Currently, inUkraine there is a three-tier regulation of public relations in the field of intellectualproperty law. On the one hand, the Civil Code of Ukraine, the rules of which are characterizedby a corresponding nature, terminological inconsistency with special legislation;special legislation regulating legal relations arising from the creation and use ofcertain objects of intellectual property rights; as well as the provisions of ratified internationallegal acts in this area. Such legislation does not contribute to effectiveprotection or effective protection of intellectual property rights.The updating of the Civil Code of Ukraine will not improve the situation regardingproper legislative support in this area, and may lead to new conflicts. Based on the analysis of existing approaches in legal doctrine on the possible codificationof legislation in the field of intellectual property law, it is concluded that it ispossible if the latter is separated into an independent branch of law, characterized bythe subject and method of legal regulation. The existing approach to the definition ofthe subject of regulation in the doctrine of intellectual property law coincides with thecivilized approaches and does not reflect the specifics of legal relations that characterizethe field of intellectual property. The subject of intellectual property law is notlimited to private law relations, public law is also quite common. In this regard, it isproposed to understand the subject as a legal relationship arising in connection withthe creation, use and protection of intellectual property rights. It is proved that theright of intellectual property can be separated into an independent branch of law andto codify its legislation. This will be facilitated by the interest of the state and the correspondingpolitical will to do so.
