| Title | Strong copyright protection versus development: comparative legal and economic analysis of copyright infringement in the US, the EU and Ukraine |
| Summary | Recently the United States government declared Ukraine a country with unacceptable piracy rates implying that in case of further ignorance of IP rights enforcement, it would lead to certain restrictions from the developed world. This thesis examines the issue of strong intellectual property protection and the economic impact of digital piracy in order to answer the question whether developing countries like Ukraine need the intellectual property enforcement in the process of transition and development. Based on the comparative analysis of legal acts of the US, the EU and Ukraine and on the economic examination of the of copyright industries contribution to the economy of these regions the thesis stands for solving other problems before the problem of IP enforcement because in order to eliminate copyright infringement, there is a need to eliminate poverty, to improve other sectors of the economy and to fight with problems like corruption in the country. |
