In times of a deep economic crisis, international support, including economic support, depends largely on fulfillment of the international obligations undertaken by Ukraine. Due to the complexity of the reforms implemented by Ukrainian society, political infighting, lack of politicalwill, unity and consistency in the implemented reforms, our country today recognizes the improper and untimely implementation of certain provisions of the Association Agreement with the EU. Intellectual activity permeates all spheres of society, its results, intellectual property rights are in constant development, changing, new objects appear, which presents new requirements for legal systems, on the legal regulation of the specified sphere, and arising out legal relationships. Today, implementation of the Association Agreement with the EU, one of the Chapters of which is the field of intellectual property, assumes of economic and political importance. However, even the judicial reform introduced and the creation of the High Court on Intellectual Property have not deliver their expected results. All because of inconsistency of actions of legislative and executive branches of power, lack of systematicity in reform, and its insufficient substantiation.That is why, today, there is a growing need for the adoption of the National Strategy for the Development of the Intellectual Property Sphere for the period 2020–2025, which should become a comprehensive reflection of the state policy in the field of intellectualproperty. As to its legal nature, the National Strategy for the Development of Intellectual Property is a set of measures aimed at: (creating) promoting and encouraging the creation of intellectual property rights; (use) the introduction of favorable conditions andmechanisms for the use of intellectual property rights in production and other economic sectors; establishment of effective public administration in the field of intellectual property; increase of efficiency of activity of state institutions of the intellectual property protection system, examination of applications and issuance of security documents; improvement of legislation on protection of intellectual property rights; improving the mechanisms of protection of intellectual property rights; formation of a high level of culture and education in the field of intellectual property in order to build a competitive national economy, based on knowledge and innovation and implemented by the Government of our country. The effectiveness of the Strategy depends on the successful implementation of judicial reform and the effective work of the High Court on Intellectual Property.

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.

The focus is on those means of protecting intellectual property rights envisaged by the Association Agreement between the EU and the eaec and their Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of the other part, and outlines the prospects for their practical implementation within the legal framework of Ukraine.

The most important problematic aspects and prospects of improving the legal regulation of intellectual property protection on the way to European integration are described in detail. The experience of foreign countries in ensuring the protection of intellectual property is analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the features of computer program protection, which is especially relevant nowadays. Features of the use of license agreements by the owner of computer programs, namely BSD License, Apache License, GNU General Public License, GNU Lesser General Public License, were analyzed. The conclusion is drawn that a system of continuous analysis of decisions made by European countries in the field of intellectual property law, as well as on issues related to general state policy on the administration of intellectual property, in order to implement developed approaches to legislation and law enforcement practice, could improve the protection of intellectual property rights in Ukraine.

Keywords: advertising, legal regulation, subjects of advertising activity, consumerrights, advertising legislation, hidden advertising, comparative advertising The main prerequisite for the rationalization of advertisingactivities in all its scale is the methodological and planned preparation of advertisingmessages and their correct use at all stages of the advertising process. Advertisingagencies play an important role in being qualified coordinators between trade(distribution) and marketing, for the benefit of consumers.The specificity of legal relations arising in connection with the creation and distributionof advertising is associated with the fact that their subjects on the part ofadvertising producers are mainly professional business entities, which concludeagreements on the creation of advertising with their customers. Relationships betweenadvertising creators and advertising agencies are mainly built based onorder agreements for the creation and use of objects of intellectual property rightsor labour contracts. In this case, the author retains non-property intellectual propertyrights, while property rights in most cases pass to the advertising agency oradvertising customer.So, the author retains non-property rights, and, unfortunately, they, as a rule, areunimplemented properly in relations arising from the creation and distribution of advertising.Undoubtedly, we are talking about the right to a name. As a rule, advertisementsdon’t include their creators' name, regardless of how they are distributed.However, this doesn’t mean that the rights of the advertising author. or the rights ofthe advertisement constituent elements author may be violated. The legislation notesthe possibility not to indicate the name of the author with his consent or at his request.According to Law of Ukraine “Copyright and Related Rights”, the author has apersonal non-property right to demand recognition of his authorship by properly indicatingthe author's name on the work and its copies of any public use of the work, certainly,if it’s possible. However, the purpose of advertising is to disseminate informationabout a product or service and not about its author. For the practical aspect ofthis situation, it’s usually indicated that the producer is an advertising agency, notthe individual authors of the content.
