Moral Rights
There are four categories of moral rights which belong to authors and are quite distinct from copyright:
- Paternity: the right to be acknowledged as the author. It has to be asserted and can be over-ridden by the copyright owner for material created in the course of employment
- Integrity: the right of the author to prevent or object to derogatory treatment of his or her work
- False attribution: the right of persons not to have work falsely attributed to them
- Disclosure: the right of the author to withhold certain photographs or films from publication.
