质疑“商业秘密法益论”——兼论商业秘密权的具体内容

Is Trade Secret a Kind of Legal Interests?——Also on the Content of Trade Secret Rights

权利和法益的主要区别在于权利可以被主体积极行使,而法益只能用以消极禁止。商业秘密可以被持有人积极行使,故而是权利而不是法益。以物权法中的权能模式来概括商业秘密的权能不能适应知识产权法的特点。商业秘密"专有权"的权能不包括身份权,而只包括禁止不正当获取权、披露权和使用权。

The main difference between rights and legal interests is that rights can be exercised positively by its owner.But legal interests can only be used negatively to prohibit infringement.Trade secrets can be exercised positively by its owner,so it＇s a kind of rights but not legal interests.The content of trade secret rights should not use the model of rights in rem because it can not reflect the characteristic of intellectual property.The exclusive rights of trade secret doesn＇t include right of status.They include the rights of prohibiting others to acquire,disclose or use trade secrets in a dishonest way.
