Abstract

Derivative works are one of the basic and traditional subjects of literary and artistic property, along with original works, so most of the latter concepts can be applied to them. The method of creating derivative production and its complex nature is perhaps one of the most important foundations on which intellectual property laws have been based to justify the protection of these works. Because their creation is based on the works of others, this in turn has affected the relationships and rights of authors, which jurisprudent, judiciary, and legislation have tried to reconcile. Despite the generalization of copyright provisions to all intellectual works, derivative works are always considered to have a subordinate relationship to the original works, which requires their authors to respect the rights related to them
