辛亥革命时期中国著作权法的发展

内忧外患情况下颁布的《大清著作权律》被辛亥革命后成立的民国政府长期"暂时适用",后依其制定了《北洋政府著作权法》。这说明民族存亡催生了中国的著作权立法,受西方思想影响,国家已从倾力于文化控制转而开始注意"民生",保护"民权"。著作权法的发展为新民主主义思想的传播创造了条件,但也暴露了辛亥革命的不彻底性。

The Development Of Chinese Copyright Law in the 1911 Revolution

The government of the Republic of China established through the 1911 Revolution had applied the Qing Copyright Law enacted by the Qing government under the circumstance of domestic trouble and foreign invasion for a long period,and enacted the Beiyang Government Copyright Law according to it.National crisis hastened the legislation of the first Chinese copyright law.Under the influence of the western ideology,the Chinese government had changed from tight cultural control to paying attention to people’s livelihood and protection of civil rights.The development of Chinese copyright law had created conditions for propagating the new democracy theory,and betrayed that the 1911 Revolution is not a complete revolution.
