Title | The Unsuccessful Implementation of Copyright Enforcement Laws and the Spread of Internet Piracy in Bulgaria |
Summary | Internet piracy and copyright infringement is a very salient issue in Bulgaria, but it is not mainly due to the existence of piracy, because it is a common problem everywhere. It is serious because Bulgaria since 2007 is one of the newest members of the European Union and its ranking high on piracy rates is not exactly how it is supposed to be represented at EU level. The requirements for it in dealing with this problem are higher than in the other countries. And it is a lot difficult for it to keep up with the expectations for improvement, because the Bulgarian government lacks expertise and practice in the copyright law and its actions are further impeded by the gap between laws and their proper implementation. The influence of the EU and the US is of crucial importance in the process of fighting against. Through the examination of official documents, treaties and expert opinions, the possible remedies for the problem in will be sought. |
