承继传统抑或另辟蹊径——论软件权专门立法的合理性

Inheriting the Tradition or Finding a New Path——On the Rationality to Specially Legislation for Software Right

用"软件权"概念来界定软件权利人的专有权并将之分为"原编软件权"和"创编软件权"的二层次立法模式,能够有效地平衡软件权利人利益和公众对软件产品的合法需求之间的冲突,并能同时保护权利人创新的动力与知识产品的传播及应用,因此应成为软件保护首选的理想模式。软件法律保护模式从承继传统到另辟蹊径的转换是适应软件技术创新与产业化趋势的必然选择。

The two-level software right legislative mode that defines the exclusive right of the owner as the concept of 'software right' and divides it into 'originally made software' and 'originally made software right', protects concurrently both the creative motion and the spread and application of Intellectual products, thus effectively mitigates the conflict of the interests between software right owner and the public's lawful demands of the software products. Thus, this legislative mode should be the most favorable mode for software protection. The transformation of the legislative mode from inheriting the tradition to finding a new way is necessary to accommodate the trend of technical innovation and industrialization.
