From Marx to Google: Redefining the Role of Moral Rights in Czechia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The article analyses the communist copyright reform of 1953 which introduced an open catalogue of robust perpetual moral rights for authors and—to a certain extent—performers. Although the practical exercise of moral rights was in fact limited, they served as the main vehicle for justification of copyright in socialist society, where copyright was no longer a property right but rather an instrument regulating public access to works and ‘just’ remuneration of authors and performers. The article argues that if moral rights are to play their role today as a way to support cultural diversity and combat globalization, they must be rethought as instruments primarily serving the individual interests of authors rather than those of society, which would still indirectly benefit from the creators’ right to enforce their immaterial interests in works and performances of their own. Consequently, copyright policy should focus on the personality of the author and performer, not the vague interests of society, users or publishers. This article shows that moral rights are not an obstacle to copyright-related business but an essential part of the copyright system.
