Are copyright and copyright the same in law?

1. Are copyright and copyright the same in law?

1, same. They have the same content. Whether it is called copyright or copyright, its terms and contents are basically the same. Judging from the legislative style of various countries in the world, the object of protection called copyright law in various countries includes not only written works, but also other works, including the content of neighboring rights. In a country named copyright law, the main content of protection is not the rights of publishers, but the rights of authors, and the objects of protection are basically the same as those in a country named copyright law.

2. Legal basis: Article 2 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Copyright Law.

Works of China citizens, legal persons or other organizations, whether published or not, shall enjoy copyright in accordance with this Law. The copyright enjoyed by the works of foreigners and stateless persons in accordance with the agreement signed between the country to which the author belongs or the country of habitual residence and China or the international treaties to which * * * is a party shall be protected by this Law. Works of foreigners and stateless persons first published in China shall enjoy copyright in accordance with this Law. The works of authors and stateless persons from countries that have not signed agreements with China or participated in international treaties are first published in the member countries of international treaties to which China is a party, or published in both member countries and non-member countries at the same time, and are protected by this Law.

2. What are the similarities between copyright and patent right?

1. Copyright and patent belong to intellectual property rights, and both belong to the narrow sense of intellectual property rights, that is, intellectual property rights in the traditional sense;

2. The nature of copyright and patent right is the same, that is, both have the private nature of the right ontology and the immateriality of the right object;

3. Copyright and patent have the exclusive characteristics of intellectual property, that is, intellectual property is monopolized by the obligee, who monopolizes this right and is strictly protected by law. No one may use the intellectual products of the obligee without the legal provisions or the permission of the obligee;

4. Copyright and patent right are regional, and their rights are not unlimited, but restricted by the region, that is, they are strictly territorial, and their effectiveness is limited to their own region;

5. Both copyright and patent have timeliness, that is, the protection period stipulated by law. Copyright is generally 50 years after the author's death, or if the author is not a citizen, the protection period is 50 years after the first publication, the patent right is 20 years from the date of invention, and the shape and design can only protect 10 year. Once their rights exceed the limited time limit, their rights will automatically disappear, and related intellectual property rights will become the common wealth of the whole society.
