AFIN DE DETERMINER LA LOI APPLICABLE AUX DROITS VOISINS, LA METHODE CONFLICTUELLE DICTE UN RAISONNEMENT EN DEUX ETAPES. ESSENTIELLEMENT FONDEE SUR LE DROIT COMPARE, LA PREMIERE ETAPE CONSISTE EN LEUR QUALIFICATION ET PERMET DE DEMONTRER L'ENJEU DES CONFLITS DE LOIS. LES STATUTS REEL, PERSONNEL ET PROPRE AUX DROITS INTELLECTUELS SONT AUTANT DE QUALIFICATIONS SUGGEREES EN DROIT D'AUTEUR QUI DOIVENTETRE REPOUSSEES. SEULE LA QUALIFICATION DELICTUELLE CORRESPOND AUX DROITS VOISINS ET PERMET DE METTRE EN LUMIERE LES DIVERGENCES EXISTANT ENTRE LE DROIT DE L'ARTISTEINTERPRETE, DROIT DE LA PERSONNALITE A VOCATION PROFESSIONNELLE, ET CEUX DES PRODUCTEURS ET ENTREPRISES DE COMMUNICATION AUDIOVISUELLE, PROTECTION RENFORCEE CONTRE LA CONCURRENCE DELOYALE ET LE PARASITISME. LA QUALIFICATION CONTRACTUELLE REND NATURELLEMENT COMPTE DES CONTRATS D'EXPLOITATION DES DROITS VOISINS QUI PRESENTENT DE NETTES DIFFERENCES AVEC CEUX DU DROIT D'AUTEUR : ALORS QUE LES CESSIONS DES DROITS DES ENTREPRENEURS DE LA CREATION SONT SOUMISES AU DROIT COMMUN DES OBLIGATIONS, L'EXERCICE DU DROIT DE L'ARTISTE S'INSCRIT DANS UN CONTRAT DE TRAVAIL. LA SECONDE ETAPE DU RAISONNEMENT IMPOSE DE RECHERCHER LE RATTACHEMENT DES DROITS VOISINS. LA LOI APPLICABLE AUX DROITS EUX-MEMES EST CELLE DU PAYS OU LEUR PROTECTION EST DEMANDEE COMPETENTE EN TANT QUE LEX LOCI DELICTI, LA LOI DU PAYS D'ORIGINE N'ETANT PAS PRISE EN COMPTE ICI ALORS QU'ELLE INTERVIENT LARGEMENT EN DROIT D'AUTEUR. QUANT A LA LOI APPLICABLE AUX CONTRATS D'EXPLOITATION DES DROITS, ELLE EST DETERMINEE, POUR LES ENTREPRENEURS DE LA CREATION, GRACE AUX REGLES GENERALES DE LA CONVENTION DE ROME QUI GARANTISSENT UNE PLEINE AUTONOMIE DE LA VOLONTE ET, POUR LES ARTISTES-INTERPRETES, PAR SES REGLES SPECIALES REGISSANT LES CONTRATS DE TRAVAIL QUI IMPOSENT L'INTERVENTION DE NOMBREUSES DISPOSITIONS IMPERATIVES.




Intellectual Property Law in France


Book Description

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph provides a survey and analysis of the rules concerning intellectual property rights in France. It covers every type of intellectual property right in depth – copyright and neighbouring rights, patents, utility models, trademarks, trade names, industrial designs, plant variety protection, chip protection, trade secrets, and confidential information. Particular attention is paid throughout to recent developments and trends. The analysis approaches each right in terms of its sources in law and in legislation, and proceeds to such legal issues as subject matter of protection, conditions of protection, ownership, transfer of rights, licences, scope of exclusive rights, limitations, exemptions, duration of protection, infringement, available remedies, and overlapping with other intellectual property rights. The book provides a clear overview of intellectual property legislation and policy, and at the same time offers practical guidance on which sound preliminary decisions may be based. Lawyers representing parties with interests in France will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative intellectual property law.

Intellectual Property and Private International Law


Book Description

'Intellectual property and private international law' was one of the subjects discussed at the 18th International Congress of Comparative Law held in Washington (July 2010). This volume contains the General Report and 20 National Reports covering Canada, US, Japan, Korea, India and a number of European countries (Austria, France, Germany, UK, Spain etc). The General Report was prepared on the basis of National Reports. The national reporters not only describe the existing legal framework, but also provide answers for up to 12 hypothetical cases concerning international jurisdiction, choice-of-law and recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in multi-state IP disputes. Based on their answers the main differences between legal systems as well as the shortcomings of the cross-border enforcement of IP rights are outlined in the General Report. The Reports in this volume analyse relevant court decisions as well as recent legislative proposals (such as the ALI, CLIP, Transparency, Waseda and Korean Principles). This book is therefore a significant contribution to the existing debate in the field and will be a valuable source of reference in shaping future developments in the cross-border enforcement of IP rights in a global context.




Yearbook of Private International Law


Book Description

The Yearbook of Private International Law series, an annual publication now published by Sellier. European Law Publishers in cooperation with the Swiss Institute of Comparative Law, provides analysis and information on private international law (PIL) developments world-wide. This sixth volume looks rather "Euro-centric", due to the impressive and continuous rhythm at which the creation of a European system of PIL is progressing at the European Community level. Contributions include discussion of the proposal for a Rome II regulation on conflict of laws in torts, as well as an analysis of the Avello decision, which could create a new framework for the development of PIL in Europe. Additional articles focus on the national conflict systems of some European states. An important comparative study discusses the treatment of foreign tax laws and judgments in four major European countriesâ??United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Italy. The actual and controversial issue of registered partnership is discussed from the perspective of Spanish law. Additionally, an English translation of the latest national PIL codificationâ??the recent Belgian Codeâ??is included.




Rome I Regulation


Book Description

Will the new Rome I Regulation meet its goals - to improve the predictability of the outcome of litigation? - to bring certainty as to the law applicable and the free movement of judgments? - to designate the same national law irrespective of the country of the court in which an action is brought? The most important features of this instrument were outlined and discussed by distinguished legal experts from all over Europe and beyond at the conference "The Rome I Regulation", held in Verona on March 2009. This first book in English on the Rome I Regulation contains the papers submitted to that conference.
