Copyright Infringement in the light of Adaptation and Appropriation

Adaptation of literary and artistic works is one of the common ways of creating works.Adapted works can have independent values that make them original and protecting. The use of another work in the form of adaptation requires mechanisms such as obtaining permission from the right holder or invoking legal exceptions to the right. But legal regimes do not usually talk about the rules of adaptation, such as Right of Reproduction and its exceptions, while adaptation and appropriation is a common art movement in society and can in practice bring numerous Infringement. The serious question is in what legal framework can another work be adapted? and how the boundary between authorized and unauthorized use is determined? Undoubtedly, the analysis of permitted uses depends on precise legal criteria that, while preserving the copyright of the first work, also provide the basis for the creation of new works. The present paper concludes with a descriptive-analytical method that adaptation, considering the policies of each country's intellectual property system, is allowed in specific frameworks such as assessing the market impact of the adaptation on the original work and accepting some modifications in copyright, including moral rights.
