COPYRIGHT AGREEMENT: CONCEPT, TYPES AND FEATURES

Abstract

Copyright is one of the most significant and dynamic areas of civil law. This is due to the rapid development of technical means and technologies, which allow as fast as possible to copy and distribute works that are determined by law as objects of copyright. The legal mechanism for the alienation of intellectual property rights is the conclusion of special types of contracts, which are primarily copyright contracts. Intellectual property treaties are relatively new in the system of contractual obligations, which necessitates their further research and revealing the problems of the application of the current legislation in this area. The article is devoted to the study of the legal nature of the author’s contract. In particular, the definition of the notion of the author’s contract, the list of types of contracts on which the property rights of intellectual property are managed, as well as certain conditions and significant features of the author’s contract are singled out. In addition, the article analyzes the theoretical and legal problems of the essence of the author’s contract. There are many definitions of the concept of «copyright contract», but many of them are based on the material theory of intellectual property, which does not correspond to the current state of development of legal relations in the field of intellectual property. Analyzing the main types of copyright contracts, it is worth pointing out the possibility of concluding copyright agreements on the creation of copyright objects and contracts for the transfer of the right to use the work.
