网络环境下著作权权利限制之法理分析

传统著作权权利限制的合理性构成网络环境下著作权权利限制的理论基础。现代著作权法在把作者权利作为核心利益保护的同时,对于网络环境下的权利扩张必须进行限制,兼顾作品传播者和使用者的利益,以实现作者、传播者和使用者三方利益的均衡,从而促进社会文化事业的良性发展。著作权法中有关合理使用的规定,原则上同样适用于网络环境下作品的使用。同时,由于网络的特性,还应扩大合理使用的范围。

Legal Principle of the Copyright Restraint under the Environment of Network

Traditional copyright restraint forms the theoretical foundation of the copyright restraint under the environment of network. The modern copyright law regards authors' right as the core interest that should be protected, while restraining the right expansion under the environment of network and giving consideration to the interests of disseminators and users in order to fulfill the right balance of authors, disseminators and users. The relevant regulations in the copyright law basically apply to the works in network. And we should also expand the range of its rational use because of the features of network.
