Legal subjectivity:
The broad classification of intellectual property rights is the classification based on international law, mainly based on the WIPO Convention Establishing the World Intellectual Property Organization and the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights 》. According to Article 2, Paragraph 8, of the Convention Establishing the World Intellectual Property Organization, intellectual property rights can be divided into the following eight categories: (1) Rights regarding literary, artistic and scientific works. (2) Rights regarding performances, recordings and broadcasts of performing artists. (3) Regarding people’s rights to invent in all fields. (4) Rights regarding scientific discovery. (5) Rights regarding industrial designs. (6) Regarding trademarks, service marks, manufacturer names and mark rights. (7) Regarding the right to prevent unfair competition. (8) All other rights arising from intellectual activity in the fields of industry, science, literature and art. Since the discovery itself cannot be directly applied in industrial and agricultural production, that is, it does not have the nature of property, many countries do not regard it as an object of intellectual property rights, but only an object of civil rights relations, recognizing and protecting the personal rights of the discoverer and the right to obtain material and spiritual rewards. , So far, all countries and treaties in the world do not recognize the status of scientific discoveries as knowledge objects.
