知识产权法官造法批判

中国部分法院在知识产权领域利用民法或其它法律的原则条款扩充知识产权的保护范围,破坏了知识产权法的利益平衡机制。本文对此类司法活动进行批评,希望重新确立知识产权法定原则在中国司法活动中的统治地位。法院在司法活动中应该放弃个人本位的自然权学说,坚持社会本位的功利主义思想,坚持知识产权法的独占适用,保证立法政策得到贯彻。

A Critic on Judge-Made Law of IP

Some courts in China have drastically extended the scope of intellectual property protection under the general principles of Civil Law or Unfair Competition Law.These judicial efforts have broken the subtle balance of interests between the public and private owners.This paper criticizes the abuse of judicial discretion and reiterates the Numerus Clausus Principle in intellectual property law.In individual cases,China courts should adhere to the social utilitarianism instead of individualistic natural law theory,emphasize the preemption of statutory intellectual property law,and make sure the legislation policy be carried out thoroughly.
