author's right

Read a random definition: act of legislation

A quick definition of author's right:

Author's right refers to the legal protection given to the creator of a work, such as a book or a song. This protection includes both moral and economic rights, which means that the author has the right to control how their work is used and to receive compensation for its use. This system is used in civil-law countries and is also known as copyright, Urheberrecht, diritto d'autore, or derecho de autor. The Berne Convention helps to ensure that these rights are protected in countries around the world.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Author's right is a system that protects the moral and economic rights of the creator of a work, especially in civil-law countries. It is also known as droit d'auteur (in French), Urheberrecht (in German), diritto d'autore (in Italian), and derecho de autor (in Spanish).

For example, if a musician writes a song, they have the right to control how it is used and who can make money from it. This means that if someone wants to use the song in a commercial or public setting, they must get permission from the musician and pay them for the use of their work.

Another example is if an author writes a book, they have the right to control how it is published and distributed. They can choose to self-publish or work with a publishing company, and they have the right to receive royalties from the sales of their book.

These examples illustrate how author's right protects the creators of works and ensures that they are fairly compensated for their efforts.
