论添加耗材的法律性质和法律规则

传统民法对添加耗材的法律性质的解释有明显局限,造成该行为在知识产权法中如何认定一直存在争议,从而导致生产者滥用知识产权损害消费者权益。根据法经济学原理,以生产者书面的意思表示为规则划分该行为的法律性质,是交易成本较低的法律规则,应据此确定添加耗材的法律性质,区别对待生产和修理两种行为,从而规范市场秩序,保护消费者权益。

Legal Nature and Legal Rules on Adding Supplies

The legal nature of adding supplies can’t be interpreted well in traditional civil law,which engenders disputes in intellectual property law,so that the producers abuse intellectual property rights and infringe the interests of consumers.According to the principle of law and economics,declaration of intention in writing by the producers is a rule to divide the different legal natures of behaviors.And the transaction costs of this rule are low.Therefore,the legal nature of the adding supplies should depend on the declaration of intention in writing.In order to standardize the market order to protect the interests of consumers,distinguishing between the production and repair is necessary.
