El impacto de la nueva ley cubana de símbolos nacionales en los derechos de propiedad intelectual

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the implications of the National Symbols Law of 2019 for the Cuban intellectual property system. The study was conducted from the correspondence of the Law with the legal regulations currently in force on Intellectual Property. Itis a new and original approach to the subject because there is no national or foreign scientific research. As a result, it became evident that the situation of national symbols is different from that of attributes. National symbols are restricted on Intellectual Property, however, it has been removed control from its attributes. It is a concluded that the new National Symbols Law strengthens the protection on Intellectual Property. The implementation and control of this Law is a complicated process that gives everyone access to national symbols in domestic trade, despite legal regulations. The formation of values and legal culture regarding national symbols must be promoted.
