【摘要】 版权行政保护,是指国家行政机关,根据相关法律规定,通过法定程序,运用行政手段,协调版权管理内外关系的活动,是版权法律保护的重要手段。由于版权的私权属性,其受公权庇护问题在理论上和实践中都曾有过争议。在我国也产生过版权行政保护是强化还是弱化的争论。但是时代发展到今天,要求版权既能保护创作者权利也能促进社会文明的进步已经逐步成为各国的共识。而且版权行政保护也成为国际法的要求。TRIPS第49条简要规定了知识产权的行政保护,要遵循与民事保护相同的原则,而且规定缔约方可以通过制定或修改其国内法律和规则,采取必要的措施来保护公众的健康和发展,维护在对于其社会经济和技术发展来说至关重要的领域中的公众利益。条约要求各国政府联合打击侵犯版权及邻接权的行为。因此,研究版权行政保护问题,具有非常重要的现实意义。我国国务院发布的《国家知识产权战略纲要》明确了具有中国特色的知识产权保护“双轨制”,要求深化知识产权行政管理体制改革,形成权责一致、分工合理、决策科学、执行顺畅、监督有力的知识产权行政管理体制。版权行政保护体系作为知识产权行政管理制度的重要部分也要根据知识产权体制改革的要求重新架构,以提高执法效率和水平,强化公共服务职能。我国一直把行政手段作为保护版权的重要途径,但是实际实施中存在很多问题。在个人权利日益提升的情况下,如何利用公权力调整公民的版权,协调两者的矛盾,实现版权权利人利益最大化与社会文化的发展两者之间的和谐,是本文研究的主要目的。本文主要包括五个部分。第一部分探析版权行政保护的基本概念性问题,界定了版权行政保护的内涵,分析了版权行政保护的特征,介绍了版权行政保护的主体机关和具体手段,为研究版权的行政保护廓清了概念性问题。第二部分主要研究版权行政保护起源及发展,并分析其发展脉络;指出版权行政保护存在诸多问题如制度的不完善、权力来源的多元且分配的不明确、执法水平较低和版权意识的低下、与司法保护地协作性不高等并解析其原因。第三部分总结了版权行政保护的发展规律,认为版权保护客体的扩张导致版权行政保护势必加强,同时保护手段也有所变化,继而分析版权行政保护存在的必要性源于知识产权制度的公法化趋势、行政权本身的特性和行政保护方式自身具有的优势。第四部分主要研究我国版权行政保护所要达到的目标及在构建过程中应遵循的基本原则和理念。首先,明确版权行政保护应该弥补法律漏洞、达到推动版权产业发展和社会文化繁荣的目的;其次,为了达成这些目标要遵循一些的基本原则,比如社会利益优先原则、制度的协调统一和稳定灵活原则等等。第五部分主要论证完善我国版权行政保护的具体措施。版权行政保护在现阶段需要加强,要遵循现代行政法的理念和新时代的要求重新建构体系。内容包括版权行政管理机关的改革,行政立法的完善、执法的加强和行政指导的积极主动,版权保护意识的提高,政府相关信息的公开及对外合作的加强和对行政权的控制等内容。本文采用实证研究与理论分析相结合,将行政保护现状与法律制度相联系的方式,探讨版权行政保护的法律渊源、现实基础和理论支撑,同时通过文献分析法和比较分析法解析我国版权行政保护存在的问题,找出其发展的方向和所要采取的措施。文章通过研究认为,版权客体在技术进步推动下的扩张和版权保护期限的延长使得版权保护私益和公益的矛盾凸显,创作自由是公民的宪法权利,而保护公民创作自由和财产权不仅仅是民事法的追求也是行政权的价值所在,促进社会公益和文化的繁荣发展是行政权的另外一个重要的目的,笔者认为版权行政保护应倾向于社会公共利益。新形势的发展决定了版权行政保护不应该弱化,而应该加强。故而,以有效弥补法律漏洞,推动版权产业健康发展和追求私权与公益的平衡为目标,遵循社会利益优先的原则建成一个兼具灵活性与稳定性,上下左右协调一致、公开公正有效率的版权行政保护体系,是非常必要的,该体系的运作要有章可循,有法可依,符合国情,能够取得实效。
【Abstract】 Administrative protection of copyright refers to the state administrative organs, According to relevant laws and regulations, through the statutory procedures, and use of the administrative means to coordinate the relationship between rights management and outside activities. There are controversial subjects in the field of copyright. This materially is the personal right which and the public interest coordinated question. Also there are arguments that administrative protection of copyright is to strengthen or weaken in China. However, protecting copyright rights of creators as well as promote the progress of social civilization has become a consensus among all countries, and administrative protection of copyright is the requirements of international law. TRIPS Article 49 has briefly provides, the administrative protection of intellectual property rights is necessary to follow the same principles of civil protection, and the provisions of the Parties may enact or amend their domestic laws and rules, to take the necessary measures to protect public health and development, and safeguarding in its socio-economic and technological development in the area of vital public interest. Treaties require governments to joint and crack down on infringement of copyright and neighboring rights act.China’s State Council issued the "Outline of National Intellectual Property Strategy" define that protection of intellectual property rights with Chinese characteristics "dual track" and demand deepen reform of the administrative system of intellectual property rights. Administrative protection of copyright is an important part of intellectual property rights system, so the reform should be in accordance with the requirements of intellectual property rights to re-structure for improving efficiency and the level of law enforcement, and strengthen public service functions. China has been used the administrative means as an important way to protect copyright, but there are many problems. How to adjust the power of citizens using the copyright and increasing the rights of the individual, and the realization of the maximization of copyright, cultural development and social harmony is the main purpose of this paper.This article includes five parts.The first part defines the administrative protection of copyright .It is different from the administrative protection of patent and trademark, involving wide range of sectors and many departments. The second part research the origins and the development of administrative protection of copyright, pointing out some of the results achieved and problems, including the imperfect system, power multiple source and distribution is not clear, the lower level of law enforcement and copyright awareness is low, and so on, followed by analysis of the existence of administrative protection of copyright due to it has own advantages. The third part studies the law and necessary of administrative protection. The fourth part studies how to improve the administrative protection of copyright issues in China. First of all, the administrative protection of copyright should fill the legal loopholes; secondly, in order to achieve these goals we should follow some basic principles. Part V studies the specific measures of administrative protection. It needs to be strengthened, to follow the ideas of modern administrative law and the requirements of a new era of re-construction of the system.The research methods of this paper are empirical research and theoretical analysis, literature analysis and comparative analysis are used too. The paper try to resolve administrative protection identify the direction of its development and the measures to be taken. Studies suggest that the expansion object and extension of the duration of copyright protection make the contradiction between private interest and public welfare highlights. Creative freedom is a constitutional right of citizens. So protecting citizens’property rights and freedom of creation is not only the civil law pursuit but also the value of the executive power. The promotion of social welfare, cultural prosperity and development of executive power are additional important objectives of administrative protection of copyright; I believe that public interests should be preferred. Therefore, in order to effectively cover the loopholes of the law, to promote the healthy development of copyright industries and to pursuit the balance of private and public as the goal, it is very necessary to establish a coordinated, open and fair and efficient administrative protection of copyright system.
