民间文学艺术作品著作权保护的制度设计

On Setting up the System of Authorship Protection of Folk Literary and Artistic Works

我国对民间文学艺术作品著作权保护进行制度设计时,划定的保护范围,既不能像《班吉协定》那样过于宽泛,也不应当仅限于语言形式的民间文学而使之过于狭窄;以物质形态固定并已出版的民间文学艺术作品,不应排斥于保护范围之外;未形成作品的民间素材,一旦形成整理本则应纳入保护范围。确定著作权主体,就是从法律上承认产生民间文学艺术的群体是著作权的主体,行使权利的主体应当是各级政府,代表各级政府行使权利的为各级文化行政部门。赋予著作权人的权利应当包括相应的经济权利和人格权。在赋予著作权人各项权利的同时,还应当对权利作相应的限制。

In setting up the system of authorship protection of folk literary and artistic works, the protection range should not be too broad like 'Bangui Agreement', not too narrow owing to their languages. The published folk literary and artistic works, as a fixed material form, should not be excluded from being protected; the unpublished material, once sorted out into copies, should be brought into the protection scope. Determining the subject of authorship means that the group composing folk literary and artistic works is the subject of authorship from the perspective of law, the subject of enacting rights should be the government at all levels, and the cultural administrative department at all levels perform the official functions on behalf of the government. The rights conferred on the person with authorship include the economic right and the right to human dignity.
