论“应当由著作权人享有的其他权利”

On the Interpretation of"Other Rights which Shall be Enjoyed by the Copyright Owners"

依据历史解释和法理分析,我国《著作权法》规定的“应当由著作权人享有的其他权利”仅指著作财产权。著作财产权列举的例示性不是理论共识,故司法认定“其他权利”时宜谨慎,谦抑程度应超过对“其他作品”的认定。非基于作品产生的利益、立法者有意排除保护的作品利益,均不得解释为“其他权利”。认定时应采用“止损原则”,而非“利益延伸原则”,即:新的作品使用方式严重损害既有著作权之时才考虑适用。如果新的使用方式只是带来了新增利益,未严重影响既有著作权,设权与否应交由立法确认。

According to the historical and rational analysis of legislative text,"other rights which shall be enjoyed by the copyright owners"in China's Copyright Law do not include moral rights.Considering that the legal effect of economic rights list is not admittedly illustrative,the courts should be much more prudent in deciding"other rights"than in deciding"other works".The interests not derived from work and of which protection has been excluded intentionally by legislators should not be interpreted as"other rights".It's advisable to adopt the"loss preventing doctrine"rather than"benefit extending doctrine".That is,a new way of using work can be decided judicially as"other rights"only in the case which such use will impact seriously the existing economic rights.While a new way of using constitutes only an added value of work,the power of deciding if such use is one of"other rights"should be left to legislators.
