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.

 The article investigates the problem of copyright piracy. The concept of Internet piracy is disclosed, according to which this phenomenon can be considered, both in the broad, and in the narrow sense. Piracy in the narrow sense — activities related to the manufacture and mplementation of counterfeit copies. Considering piracy in the broad sense, it can be argued that the basis of this activity is the use of the object of copyright, without the permission of the right holders in order to profit. The signs of Internet piracy are identified, including: illegal use of copyrighted objects; realization of objects of copyright by publishing, reproduction, distribution and distribution without the consent of the author (the copyright holder); causing damage to the interests of the author (the right holder); commercialization; gaining profit or moral gain illegally. The classification of piracy has been carried out, which confirms the fact that the placement of copyright objects in the «network» is currently a very widespread phenomenon. Accordingly, piracy can be classified as: activity related to the partially legal disclosure of the object of copyright; activity that is related to the falsification of the copyright object; activities that are reflected in the illegal distribution of copies of the copyright object. The main ways of protecting copyright from piracy in the Internet in Ukraine and the problem issues in this area are determined. Accordingly, legal remedies can be applied in two forms — jurisdictional and non-jurisdictional. Jurisdictional form provides that the author (legal owner) has the right to apply to the court or other  competent or state bodies for the application of the necessary measures for the restoration of violated rights and the termination of the offense. Non-divisive way of protecting (self-defense) — the actions of a person in the protection of copyright, carried out by them on their own. Having analyzed the methods of protection, it was concluded that the non-irisbased form of protection provides more expeditious and cost-effective protection of the rights of the author. Jurisdictional way of protection is characterized by less efficiency.Because a considerable amount of time is spent on filing an action in court, hearing a complaint, making a decision and, finally, implementing this decision. The technical component of the non-jurisdiction form of protection is analyzed. Namely, technical methods of protection are defined, which can be attributed to: self-destruction of thecopyright object in case of illegal copying; placement of an object with limited functionality; use of watermarks; indication of copyrights on publications; etc. The proposals for amending the current legislation in the field of protection of copyright from piracy in the Internet are formulated. The changes should concern provisions affecting both legal and socioeconomic issues, namely: imperfection of legislation in the field of intellectual property rights (impossibility of reliable establishment of an offender who deals with Internet piracy; insufficiency of evidence base of copyright infringement; absence of judges and civil servants of specialist knowledge in the field of intellectual property rights); a highprice that makes it impossible to sell licensed products, hence, the number of sites that contain unlicensed products increases; insufficient level of financial provision of specialists who are professionals in the field of intellectual property; etc.

The constitutional bases of mediation in intellectual property cases related to the complex interdisciplinary legal institution of self-protection of rights are analyzed. The urgency of the topic is due to a combination of public and private law principles in modern legal regulation and the general process of constitutionalization of private law and intellectual property law, in particular. It is noted that the proclamation of the constitutional right to self-defense means the inclusion in the comprehensive system of human rights protection of additional ways that increase the effectiveness of its other components and enrich the constitutional human rights mechanism as a whole. In recent years, mediation has been recognized as one of the effective and promising ways of self-protection of intellectual property rights. Ukraine is just beginning to build the institution of mediation as a way to protect intellectual property rights. The research of Ukrainian scientists analyzes the situations when it is expedient and profitable to use mediation to resolve disputes in the field of intellectual property. At the same time, in some works of Ukrainian researchers, in the author�s opinion, there is an element of a certain underestimation of public law support for the right to self-defense, in particular copyright. We believe that the constitutional provisions on self-protection of rights should be used more widely in the development of doctrinal issues of mediation intellectual property matters, which should strengthen the civil aspects of the right to selfdefense and give the problem a broader human significance. The author is convinced that the methodology of the modern system of protection of intellectual property rights should be based on an anthropological approach, which means that the provision and protection of intellectual property rights should be carried out from the standpoint of guaranteeing individual rights. It is concluded that the practice proves the profitability and effectiveness of the use of mediation in disputes related to the protection of intellectual property rights. The full implementation of this institution in Ukraine will contribute not only to improving the protection of intellectual property, but also to ensuring the constitutional rights of man and citizen.

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
