Copyright item creation agreements

The study analyzes the agreements under which a work of science, literature, and art can be created. The research looks at the following contractual structures: author’s order agreement, commissioned works, works created in case of contract performance, works created under the government or municipal contract. The paper lists the characteristics that allow distinguishing these types of structures from each other. One should presume the approval of a work fixed in a tangible medium of expression or in another accessible form. For this purpose, it is advisable to apply the disposition principle to regulate the rule on the approval period. In the absence of objections of the customer within the period established by the contract or dispositive rule of law, the work should be considered approved. As a result of the study, proposals were made to improve the legislation in this field.
