Foreign experience shows that intellectual activity becomes a defining and decisive driving force of any development. First of all it defines the strategy and tactics of social and economic progress of any country. National administrative and legal legislation in the sphere of intellectual property protection is based on the requirements of the international conventions, their principles and market economy bases. However, the condition of struggle against offences in the sphere of intellectual property in our state does not meet requirements of nowadays. For many years Ukraine is included into number of first ten states of the world with the highest level of offences in this sphere which certifies about the presence of problems which need immediate resolving. In article on the basis of the analysis of scientific views of scientists and norms of the legislation the dynamics of counteraction to offences in the sphere of intellectual property is ascertained. The essence of such important legal category as intellectual property is defined. The causes and conditions which promote to the occurrence of offences in the sphere of intellectual property in Ukraine are ascertained, and also possible ways of overcoming determinants of offences in this sphere are outlined. Having carried out the historical and legal analysis of legal regulation of counteraction to offences in the sphere of intellectual property, it’s necessary to notice that for today there is a considerable quantity of laws and by-law regulatory legal acts which to some extent counteract offences and protect the rights ofpersons in this sphere. A considerable quantity of such acts caused the necessity of their systematization that in its turn will promote to effective and qualitative counteraction to offences in considered sphere. It’s supposed as necessary and expedient to adopt a uniform normative-legal act which would define main principles of counteraction to offences in the sphere of intellectual property in Ukraine.

Introduction. The use of technical means for copyright protection is regulated not only in Russian legislation, but also in foreign and international law. It means that the international concept of intellectual property protection could be perceived differently by foreign jurisdictions, which, in turn, is of special scientific interest. The foundations of legal regulation are laid down in international treaties, which in the intellectual property law are tools that contain substantive rules of law. The provisions of such treaties are implemented in the national (supranational) legislation, and, therefore, become part of them and subject to additions.. The article is devoted to the study of international legal regulation of the use of technical means for copyright protection.Materials and methods. The methodological basis of the research consists of the following general scientific and special methods of cognition of legal phenomena and processes: dialectical, formal-legal, comparative-legal, formal-logical, structural-functional.Results of the study. The authors found that attempts to protect copyright using technology available at every stage of history were undertaken by individual countries, beginning from the second half of the 19th century. However technical means of protection received legal regulation at the international level relatively recently, the prerequisite for that was the rapid development of digital information technologies. Analysis of international legal norms in the field of legal regulation of technical means of copyright protection has shown that at present international legal regulation is of a general nature, providing each of the states at the national level with ample opportunities for legal concretization of gen-eral norms. However, recently the Internet treaties of WIPO recognized for the first time not only the advisability of the use of technical means of protection, but also the obligation prohibiting circumvention of such protection technologies, and therefore national legislations should contain provisions regulating the circumvention of such protection technologies.Discussion and Conclusions. The introduction of international law with regard to the use of the protection technologies, despite their general and abstract nature, has given a serious impetus to the establishment of legal regulation of this institution at the national level. At the same time, the rules governing the use of the protection technologies in the near future will require greater unification and concretization due to the rapid development of digital information technologies, blurring the borders between states in terms of disseminating the results of intellectual activity, and also in order to avoid a multiplicity of interpretation of law and to ensure effective legal regulation and protection of copyright.

Introduction: the paper examines the problems associated with the definition of the legal regime of the technologies and products obtained using GMOs. The experts in the field of genetics have not yet come to an unambiguous conclusion about the degree of harm or benefit of products obtained using genetic modifications. Russia has strict restrictive measures for the production of genetically modified products. Consequently, there is virtually no market for genetically modified seeds produced in Russia. Nevertheless, the world is actively developing industries for the production of genetically modified agricultural products, and the market for the production of seeds is “captured” by a small number of foreign companies. On the other hand, climate change dictates the inevitability of using genetically modified products, the need to accelerate genetic research, and the production of GMO seeds and food. In this context, the authors set a goal to find a compromise (balanced) legal regulation of the legal regime of the technologies and products obtained using GMOs. Methods: the methodological framework for the research is a set of methods of scientific cognition, among which the formal-legal method and the method of comparative legal analysis are the leading positions. Results: the authors propose to consider the bans or support for GMO products in the context of trends in global climate change and ensuring food security. The authors have made a comparative analysis of the provisions of the international norms and the Russian legislation on the research and application of GMO technologies and products, which helped to identify an unbalanced legal regulation of the use of the GMO technologies in Russia, which reduces its competitiveness in this area on the world market. Conclusions: the Russian legislation needs to minimize this legal imbalance, which puts researchers in the field of plant genetics and producers of GMO seeds and food in unequal (worse) conditions. The legal regulation should ensure the coexistence of organic (environmentally friendly) agriculture, traditional agriculture, and the use of the GMO technologies; the introduction of special labeling of GMO products; the broadening of the powers of regional authorities in the use of GMO technologies; as well as the application of the principle of “traceability” to GMO products.

Scientific Substantiation

Modern globalization processes cause the transformation of the substantive aspect of human rights, which requires their scientific substantiation. The article is devoted to the theoretical and methodological analysis of cultural human rights, as well as the problems of their realization in the modern world under the influence of socio-economic, political and spiritual modifications. As a result of the study, the axiological importance of implementation of person’s cultural rights has been proved and the interrelation with other, no less important, human rights has been shown; factors of an objective and subjective nature that impede the protection and realization of cultural human rights are established. The comparative legal analysis of constitutional propositions, national laws and international legal acts in the sphere of recognition and realization of cultural rights made it possible to reveal the reform trends in their legal regulation in the democratic states of the world. Given the lack of a unified doctrinal paradigm of understanding cultural rights, the adoption of a universal strategic international legal act aimed at promoting the realization of cultural human rights in the modern world – the ‘International Action Plan for Developing an Effective Mechanism for the Implementation of Cultural Human Rights in the age of Globalization’ was proposed at the international level.

Introduction. Information and intellectual property are becoming increasingly important not only in Russia but all round the world. They form the basis of information resources in information and telecommunication networks, which are actively used in modern society. The concept of information has several meanings. The confusion of its technical and legal meanings can lead to legal ambiguity, which will complicate the protection of rights in connection with the introduction of objects into civil circulation, and their use in the digital environment, including in court. Theoretical Basis. Methods. The article provides a comparative analysis of the legislation of the Russian Federation on information and intellectual property in its historical context in order to identify common problems and identify trends in further development. Results. Information from a technical point of view is the data which forms any digital object (its form), including an information resource or information system. Such an object is able to exist only in a digital environment, and its use is possible only with the help of technical means. Information also has a legal meaning. In this sense, it constitutes the content of the result of intellectual activity, for example, a piece of work. Discussion and Conclusion. Currently, there are new technologies, objects, for example, digital rights, utilitarian digital rights, and legal relationships concerning their use, requiring changes in legal regulation. It is important to avoid confusion between different concepts of information in order to facilitate the subsequent proper and effective enforcement of the introduced legal norms in the development of new legislation.
