REFORMING LEGAL REGULATION OF INTELLECTUAL RIGHTS INHERITANCE
The article touches upon a number of rules concerning inheritance of intellectual rights according to Russian civil legislation. The author offers ways to reform them through a systematisation of norms. Attention is paid to the necessity to make a clear distinction between property rights and moral intellectual rights, as well as to set forth their transferability in legislation. As the author notes, it is important to draw a line between intellectual rights transferring to the heirs subject to hereditary succession and heirs’ rights arising from inheritance of intellectual rights.
