21世纪是知识经济时代,相对于传统经济形态即农业经济和工业经济而言,知识经济是以知识和技术作为经济增长与发展的经济形态。与此同时,知识产权也日益成为犯罪的焦点,侵犯知识产权犯罪已成为联合国规定的17类跨国犯罪中最为严重的犯罪之一。刑事司法实践表明,在侵犯知识产权犯罪案件中,商标侵权犯罪始终占据最高的比例。在我国目前侵犯商标权犯罪日益严重的情况下,如何完善我国商标权刑事立法体系显得尤为重要。本文从三部分探讨应如何完善我国有关商标权犯罪的刑法规定,第一部分主要介绍了我国侵犯商标权犯罪的现状和特点,并分析了这些特点的成因。第二部分采用比较分析的方法,对中国、法国、德国、英国和美国等五国的商标权刑事立法进行了比较,并针对我国和其他四国的立法差异,提出了我国商标权刑事立法体系应予以改进的方面。为应对加入WTO带来的严峻挑战,还提出必须进一步完善与贸易有关的知识产权法律制度。就知识产权的刑法保护而言,应该清醒地看到,目前我国相关的刑事立法与WTO中的《与贸易有关的知识产权协议》(简称为TRIPS)规则的要求还存在一定差距。同时,由于WTO协议在我国不具有国内法上的效力,是不能直接适用的。因此,必须逐步完善相关的国内刑事立法,在刑法中及时地调整犯罪化和非犯罪化的关系,使其与WTO规则和我国的承诺相一致。第三部分则从三方面提出完善我国侵犯商标权刑事立法的提议:首先要扩大侵犯商标权刑事立法的保护范围,如将服务商标纳入刑法的保护范围,在刑法中明确对驰名商标的刑法保护和增加反向假冒商标罪;其次要完善侵犯商标权犯罪的刑罚种类,如进一步强化罚金刑的运用、增加资格刑的种类和重视非刑罚处罚方法的运用;最后提出要构建立体的侵犯商标权刑事保护体系,如建立“三位一体”的知识产权审判组织,妥善处理刑事司法和行政执法之间的关系和适度突破先刑后民原则。 侵犯商标权犯罪的刑事立法所涉及的问题众多,本文所探讨的仅仅是冰山一角。笔者试图从所收集和了解的数据、材料和案例出发,由点及面,以小见大,发现并提炼出我国刑事立法中较有争议的问题,对这些问题进行法理分析和比较研究,并提出解决这些问题的对策建议。
The 21~(st) century is the era of knowledge economy. Compare to the traditional economy formations, such as agriculture economy and industry economy, the development of the knowledge economy is based on knowledge and technology. Meanwhile, intellectual property right(IPR) is increasingly becoming a focus of the crime. The crime of infringing IPR has become one of the most serious crimes of the 17 transnational crimes stipulated by the United Nations. The criminal judicial practice shows that the crime of trademark infringement plays the leading role among the cases of infringing IPR crimes. Nowadays the crime of trademark infringement becomes serious in our country. It’s especially important to improve our criminal legislation system about trademark right. The author also discusses how to improve our penal stipulation on the crime of trademark infringement from three chapters. Chapter 1 mainly introduces the present situation and features, and analyzes the causes of the features. With the method of comparative analysis in Chapter 2, the criminal legislation on trademark right of France, Germany, England and the United States are compared. Aiming at the differences between our country and the other four countries, the author proposes the improvement of our criminal legislation of trademark right. In order to face the severe challenges of China’s entering into WTO, the author also proposes that it’s necessary to improve our legal system of IPR concerning Trade. With regard to the criminal protection of IPR, we should know absolutely that there is a certain gab between our relevant criminal legislation and the requirement stipulated in the《Agreement on Trade-Related aspects of Intellectual Property Rights》(TRIPS). Meanwhile, the agreements of WTO can’t be applied directly because they don’t belong to our domestic law. Therefore, it’s necessary to improve our relevant domestic criminal legislation and to regulate the relationships between criminalization and decriminalization in the penal code in accordance with our promises and WTO. In Chapter 3, the author puts forward proposals from 3 aspects to improve our criminal legislation of trademark infringement. Firstly, we should expand the scope of criminal protection over trademark infringement, such as the service trademark and the well-known trademark,and that, increase the new charge of reverse counterfeit trademark in penal code. Secondly, the author also proposes to improve the penalty of trademark infringement from 3 parts, such as further strengthening the use of fine penalty, increasing the types of the qualification penalty and enhancing the non-penalty punishment. At last, the author gives some suggestions to reconstruct all-round criminal protection system of trademark infringement,establish trinity trial groups of IPR, deal with the relations between criminal justice and administrative enforcement, and breakthrough the principle“Giving priority to criminal action over civil action in a lawsuit”. There are lots of problems arose from the crime of trademark infringement. The research in the article is just a tip of the iceberg. The author attempts to find and refine some issues of our criminal legislation from the data, cases and fact so as to analyze and comparatively study these issues. Furthermore, the author puts forward proposes to these issues.
