Work is considered the most important subject of copyright. It can be a literary, scientific, art work, expressed in writing and verbally. Works have no dimensions, and may also be electronic.
When does the copyright to the work originate?
Copyright in a work emanates by the fact of creation of a work.
Copyright Types
Copyright can be moral non-economic and economic.
Moral non-economic rights
- Copyright of work
- The right to use the work anonymously, pseudonym or own name
- The right to protect the work from possible encroachments
- The right to publish a work or to grant that right to another
The author will also have the right to withdraw from the publication of the work, that is, he/she can enjoy the right of withdrawal, which acts only during the lifetime. The other rights will not be expired and alienated.
Economic rights
The author has the right to prohibit or allow the use of his work, that is, reproduce, distribute, translate, process, rent, broadcast and more.
The permission to use the work is only in the form of a consensus or conditional release.
The right to use in its turn can be exclusive and non-exclusive.
The exclusive use implies the use of the work, and in the case of non-exclusive use, the author shall use the time limit, preserving his exclusive right to work.
