Abstract
The doctrine of droit moral, one of the most controversial issues in copyright law, has always been considered a matter where a wider international consensus is impossible due to the traditional dichotomy between common law philosophies and authors’ rights available in continental civil law systems. However, one of the most noteworthy developments in international copyright law over the past twenty years has been the adoption of statutory protection of moral rights regimes in a number of countries representing the common law tradition. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that concepts of moral rights in continental law states also differ in structure and provide different means of protection. The article explains the content and characteristics of moral rights, and assesses the most important aspects of French and German national legislations in this area.
