About this title

Synopsis

Although this book was first published a while ago, in essence the copyright system is still the same, with the Copyright Law now being part of the Russia's Civil Code. We hope that this book of 140 pages will prove useful for readers who wish to become familiar with the Russian copyright law. It should be especially helpful to businessmen, lawyers, publishers, scholars and general users, whose activity involves dealing with the Russian copyright and other legal issues. The Russian copyright law has changed dramatically over its 200-year history. In 1993 it was entirely rewritten, to bring it closer to its counterparts in most European states. Nevertheless, it retains a number of peculiarities. Although the legislative acts are relatively brief, and appear straightforward, the Russian copyright law has a number of unpleasant traps for those not completely familiar with its provisions and how they are applied in practice. We believe that this book will help readers to avoid these traps. Also, this book explains how to take legal action against copyright violators, to defend unjustified claims of copyright infringement, to register copyrights, to formalize transfer or acquisition agreements, and to resolve other problems that arise in routine practice.
