在網絡上，資訊技術及其使用改革了版權作品的使用方式。因特網根本性改變了版權市場。本文試圖論證，中國內地法律必須給予資訊技術足夠的發展空間，同時不能不合理地損害版權所有人的利益。 / 本文認爲，在中國版權立法和適用中，版權功利主義理論起著根本性作用。根據功利主義，版權法的目標是促使社會文明的最大化發展。而且中國政府必須發展數字經濟，且須保證其版權法合理地促使網絡中間商運行和投資中國數字經濟。中國版權法需爲資訊技術提供足夠的發展空間。 / 基於為資訊技術發展尋求足夠發展空間的目的，本文分析了Sony案抗辯，通知－删除避風港，誘導侵權和合理使用。中國必須合理解釋中國現有制度，從而避免給網絡中間商加以不合理的責任。關於版權侵權抗辯，中國應該引入美國的 Sony抗辯，作為衡量是否侵犯版權的一個因素。且避風港保護的範圍應該被擴展至包含所有網路中間商，以保證未來技術的未知發展擁有足夠的呼吸空間。而且，至少，中國應該採用某些善意轉換性使用的窮盡式合理使用抗辯，以促進現有技術的運行。且更合適的是，採用非窮盡式的合理使用抗辯，其範圍包括所有對社會有用的網路中間服務的必須運營活動，並通過確保資訊技術發展的方式。 / 一個好的法律框架可以對人類的進步有著積極的影響，不然它會對社會發展起著阻礙作用。我們需要的法律框架應該同時促進版權和信息傳播技術的發展。這意味著，在保證版權産業正常運行的同時，該法律框架應爲技術發展提供肥沃的成長土壤。 / Information technology and its usage on the internet have revolutionized the way in which various copyrighted works are captured, stored, copied and distributed. By expanding the breadth, diversity and sheer number of copyrighted works in existence, the internet has fundamentally changed the nature of copyright markets. / This thesis attempts to argue that the laws in Mainland China should reserve enough space for information technologies to develop, without unreasonably prejudicing the interests of copyright holders. / This thesis contends that the utilitarian justification for copyright plays an underlying role in both Chinese copyright legislation and judicial application. Under the utilitarian model in China, fostering a maximization of culture development is the aim of the copyright law. As such, in the era of information overload, the Chinese government should aim to develop the Digital Economy. In order to achieve this aim, it needs to start by ensuring that its copyright law appropriately enables Internet Intermediaries to operate and to invest in creating Chinese Digital Economy. Copyright law in China needs to create room to move. / This thesis examines Sony defense, notice-and-take-down safe harbors, inducement liability and fair use, for the purpose of seeking enough space for information technology development. The existing rules in China, e.g. inducement liability, should be interpreted as avoiding placing unreasonable burden on internet intermediaries. As to the defenses against copyright infringement, Sony defense in the US should be introduced as a factor in assessing copyright infringement in China. And the scope of safe harbor protection should be extended to include all internet intermediaries, for the purpose of providing breathing room for unanticipated technology developments. Moreover, at the very least, certain fair dealing exceptions for certain transformative use in good faith should be adopted in China to foster the existing operations of information technology. And it is more desirable to introduce a non-exhaustive fair dealing exception to cover activities necessary to run all socially useful internet intermeiary services, in the way of ensuring information technology development. / A well-designed legal system should have positive impacts on the human progress; or otherwise, it would have deterrence effects on the social development. A legal system which promotes both copyright and communication technologies creations is what we need in the future. This kind of system requires a fertile land for technologies innovation without destroying the developments of the entertainment industries / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Xie, Lin. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2012. / Includes bibliographical references. / Electronic reproduction.
