| | Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Berne Convention provided for a minimum term of copyright protection of the life of the author plus fifty years, but parties were free to provide longer terms of copyright protection, as the European Union did with the 1993 Directive on harmonising the term of copyright protection. | | | In 1989, the United States became a party to the Berne Convention. | | | The United States refused initially to become a party to the Convention, since it would have required major changes in its copyright law (particularly with regard to moral rights, removal of general requirement for registration of copyright works as well as elimination of mandatory copyright notice). |

| | The Berne Convention also proscribes formal registration requirements prior to judicial enforcement, so the Copyright Act as amended states "for actions for infringement of copyright in Berne Convention works whose country of origin is not the United States," registration is not required. | | | Because the United States did not join the many nations at Berne to consider a multilateral treaty on copyright protection, Congress was under pressure to amend the copyright laws, resulting in the International Copyright Act of 1891. | | | The Berne Convention Implementation Act of 1988 brings the United States, as of March 1, 1989, into the Convention of Literary and Artistic Works, a group of countries that recognizes international copyright protection, commonly known as the Berne Union or the Berne Convention. |

| | Universal Copyright Convention |
| | Berne Convention states were concerned that the existence of the UCC would encourage parties to the Berne Convention to leavethat convention and adopt the UCC instead. | | | The Berne Convention, on the other hand, provided for copyright protection for a single term based on thelife of the author, and did not require registration or the inclusion of a copyright notice for copyright to exist. | | | The UCC was developed by UNESCO as an alternative to the Berne Convention for those states which disagreed with aspects of the BerneConvention, but still wished to participate in some form of multilateral copyright protection. |

| | UNITED STATES JOINS THE BERNE COPYRIGHT CONVENTION |
| | Berne requires its members to meet certain minimum copyright standards, and Congress was forced to amend the Copyright Act to conform in several ways. | | | Berne may also serve as a powerful vehicle for the U.S. to lobby member nations to extend copyright protection to computer software, in cases where they do not already do so. | | | By ratifying Berne, the U.S. will establish copyright relations with 24 nations who were not members of the UCC, and with whom it previously had no reciprocal copyright law relations. |

| | The Bern Convention |
| | The Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works is an international copyright treaty originally signed in 1889, revised in 1971, and amended in 1979. | | | Protection under the Berne Convention is independent of protection granted in individual states. | | | In order to comply with Berne, the Act also made some basic changes to the U.S. copyright law, such as eliminating the mandatory requirement of a visible copyright notice (such as ©) for works published after 1989. |

| | General information about copyrights |
| | Under the Berne Convention, however, it is not even necessary to place a copyright notice on a work to secure copyright protection, thus there is not necessarily a date anywhere on the work. | | | After the 1978 Act, the United States adhered to the Berne Convention. | | | From the point of view of the United States, one of the most important effects of the U.S. adhering to Berne is that it is no longer fatal to copyright protection for the owner to fail to place a copyright notice on the work. |

| | Acceding to the Berne Convention has changed "U.S. copyright law more than any other single event in its 200-year history."(51) The notice requirement was eliminated as a prerequisite to receiving copyright protection. | | | American copyright law before the Berne Convention had a decidedly nationalistic focus which hampered the ability of the United States to shape multinational agreements for the protection of intellectual property rights. | | | In 1886, a convention took place in Berne, Switzerland that spawned the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (Berne Convention or Convention) and an international copyright union.(15) The Convention was the result of "over 25 years of study and conferences which were undertaken by representatives of authors and artists. |
