摘要
從著作權法發跡於1710年英國的安妮法（The Statute of Anne）案開始，著作權的保護意識逐漸抬頭。著作權被視為保護著作權人智慧結晶的重要權利之一，並被當作是一種無形的財產，不容被侵犯。而「保留一切著作權」（All rights reserved）成為著作權人標準的權利主張。然而在近年來開放原始碼計畫以及開放原始碼授權契約逐漸發揚，而Creative Commons之出現，更掀起另一波風潮。而開放性授權契約的出現，亦表示每一個人均可以成為著作權人，獨立發行自己的著作，而傳統仰賴著作權法以保護企業利益之出版社、唱片行等內容產業（content industry）的著作行銷模式，是否也應跟著改變，將是本文關注的問題。 本文首先於第一章簡單介紹開放原始碼授權契約及開放文本授權契約之背景及內涵，接著從法律經濟分析的角度，於第二章論述著作權人無須以主張智慧財產權之專屬權利，作為創作誘因的唯一來源。另外，由於開放性授權契約係屬智慧財產權授權契約之一種，因此本文第三章介紹智慧財產權授權契約之法律性質。接著，本文於第四章、第五章之部分，則選取開放性授權契約中較具代表性的開放原始碼授權契約、開放文本授權契約以及Creative Commons授權契約進行介紹。除了瞭解上述契約所欲傳達的價值立場外，並嘗試將所有開放性授權契約作一整理比較。第六章則針對開放性授權契約進行法律性質分析，以及討論其在運用上可能出現的法律問題與困境，並試著找出解決之方法。最後則於第七章探討開放性授權契約的可能營利方式，以及針對開放原始碼授權契約對電腦程式著作可能產生的影響進行論述。接著則探討開放性授權契約對著作授權、合理使用、公共領域及著作生產、發行所可能帶來的影響做出介紹。最後再輔以現有之案例，說明開放性授權契約的成功運作實例。並於本文的最終章節總結開放性授權契約對整體著作利用的影響，以及對現行著作權法帶來的啟示等等。

In recent years, the awareness of copyright protection is growing with the development of the internet and digital technologies. Content industry demanded maximum protection of copyrighted work and began to implement technology protection measures and digital right management. ‘All Rights Reserved’ became the standard of copyright protection. Therefore, people have to ask permission before they ‘use’ the copyrighted work in any way. For these reasons, it constrains most of the copyrighted content uses and blocks others to get access to copyrighted work. In the meantime, however, some copyright holders are volunteered to ‘open’ some of their copyright to end-users in order to encourage content uses with freedom. They assert ‘some rights reserved’ through licensing instead of stating ‘all rights reserved’. ‘Open Source Movement’ and ‘Creative Commons’ are the representative examples of this trend. In this thesis, I would like to talk about the origin and concept of ‘some rights reserved’. The enforceability and legal risks of open source licenses and open content licenses are also the core issues of this research. Through economic legal analysis, we will find out that copyright holders do not have to exercise copyright while still have enough incentives to produce work. Moreover, content industry can lower their cost and have more effective inputs (such as human resources, information, and so on) by utilizing ‘some rights reserved’ licenses. This licensing strategy will also assist the formation of peer production, which is beneficial to mass work production. Several successful examples will be addressed at the end of this paper. In conclusion, content industry should try to figure out a different business model instead of making profit by merely exercising copyright. Furthermore, copyright holders can facilitate the freedom of content uses by releasing some of their copyright and, as a result, obtain reputation and benefits in return. ‘Some rights reserved’ licenses can complement the existing copyright system and help rebuild the public domain of which we can all take advantage.
