Europeanization of the composition of administrative offenses in the field of intellectual property rights

Abstract

Актуальность темы статьи обусловлена ​​тем, что Украина стала кандидатом на членство в Европейском Союзе, что обуславливает необходимость законодательного регулирования сферы прав на объекты интеллектуальной собственности и экспертизы соответствующих административных правонарушений с учетом международных аспектов.

Статья посвящена изучению объективной и субъективной сторон состава административных правонарушений в сфере интеллектуальных прав. В статье анализируется правовое регулирование нарушения прав интеллектуальной собственности и классификация административных правонарушений в этой сфере.

Different methods of research analysis were chosen, namely methods of scientific knowledge, which are systematic and complex in nature. Thus, the historical-legal method was used to study the Europeanization of administrative legislation regarding administrative responsibility in the field of intellectual property rights; the system-structural method was applied during the study of international legal means for improving administrative legislation regarding administrative responsibility in the field of intellectual property rights; the logical-legal method was employed when investigating the composition of administrative offenses related to intellectual property rights; the method of legal modeling helped to formulate specific proposals on ways to improve administrative legislation regarding administrative responsibility in the field of intellectual property rights.

Special attention is paid to the objective and subjective aspects of the composition of administrative offenses, as well as to the analysis of court practice on intellectual property rights.

Peculiarities of appeals to state authorities for the protection of intellectual property rights were studied, and recommendations were offered to improve the legislation on administrative offenses in this area.

Prospects for further research include clarifying the classification of administrative offenses and making changes to legislation that better reflect the specifics of offenses in this area; taking into account the individual characteristics of offenders when addressing issues of responsibility, in particular the degree of consciousness, motivation, and the possibility of preventing similar offenses in the future; strengthening the responsibility of state authorities to ensure effective protection of intellectual property rights, particularly through cooperation with international organizations and coordination of approaches to resolving cases involving administrative offenses; development and implementation of methodological recommendations for judges who consider cases of administrative offenses in the field of intellectual property rights, with the aim of unifying approaches and improving the quality of judicial proceedings; development of an effective system for the protection of intellectual property rights and the reinforcement of necessary mechanisms for their protection, drawing on the international experience of European Union countries.
