The Role of the "Game of Interests" in the Scope of Copyright Protection

This study aims at clarifying the major issues raised by the theory of rights in general, with a focus on the legal framework from the perspective of the interest that underlies the right, and its relationship between the individual and society. The study highlights intellectual property rights, particularly copyright, due to the special attention granted to such rights by the legislator. The problem addressed in the study lies in identifying. The Game of Interests here faces the challenge of how to weave together the threads of private interest and tie them to public interest within a balanced process, considering that society is built upon these very interests—wherein lies stability. The findings of the study revealed the key regulatory impacts on copyright, as the legislator has set forth rules of balance that contribute to organizing the exploitation and use of rights within the dynamics of the Game of Interests, without causing harm to either the right holder or society. The study recommends narrowing broad exceptions and improving accessibility for marginalized users. It calls for legal reform and international collaboration to address impacts on developing countries.
