CPTPP知识产权规则下越南法律修订研究及其对中国的启示

Research on Vietnam Law Amendments under CPTPP Intellectual Property Rules and Its Enlightenment to China

《全面与进步跨太平洋伙伴关系协定》(CPTPP)以专章形式规定知识产权事项。越南作为缔约方中唯一的社会主义国家,其在CPTPP生效后快速推进知识产权立法,先后于2019、2020年作出两次全方位修订,涉及专利、商标、著作权、植物新品种、农用化学品数据保护、法律执行等知识产权法领域。从越南两轮修法背后的制度建设思路来看,其非常注重平衡式法律修订。在修法内容上,注重平衡CPTPP条约义务和越南国家利益;在修法部署上,注重中央与地方协同推进;在修法策略上,注重平衡“过渡期事项”与“紧迫事项”。越南的知识产权法律修订,对中国相关工作的开展有一定的借鉴意义。

The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership(CPTPP)establishes a common set of rules on intellectual property related matters in a comprehensive chapter.As the only socialist country among the signatories,Vietnam has promptly promoted intellectual property legislation after CPTPP entered into force.Vietnam underwent two comprehensive amendments in 2019 and 2020,addressing patents,trademarks,copyrights,new plant varieties,data protection of agricultural chemicals,law enforcement and other fields of intellectual property laws.From the perspective of institution building behind the two rounds of amendments,Vietnam pays great attention to balancing the legal amendments.Regarding the content of the amendments,Vietnam underlines a balance of CPTPP treaty obligations and its national interests.Concerning the deployment of amendments,Vietnam focuses on collaboration between central and local govern-ments to promote legislation.As for the law amendment strategy,Vietnam takes notice of the balance between“transitional issues”and“urgent matters”.Vietnam’s progress and underlying logic on intellectual property law amendments have a certain reference value for China’s subsequent work on joining CPTPP.
