Discussion

philgoddard Oct 21, 2020:
I thought I recognized this, and you should have mentioned that we discussed it several months ago. I suggested "generic copyright" for "pequeño derecho", so how about "specific"?
Eileen Brophy (asker) Oct 21, 2020:
Hi Tania Fine, I'll take your advice and see what others say. Take care, best regards.
Taña Dalglish Oct 21, 2020:
Hi Eileen Yes, I think that "Major Copyright Committee" can work, but wait for others to pipe in and see what other colleagues say! Regards and stay safe.
Eileen Brophy (asker) Oct 21, 2020:
@Tania Daglish So the best translation is the major copyright committee Tania?

Minor Copyright Committee
Explanation:
The distinction between a major copyright ("gran derecho"), which gives a specific copyright to individual works, and a minor copyright ("pequeño derecho"), which copyrights a work as part of a collection of works, seems to be one that is made in Spain but not in the English-speaking world. "Minor" is preferable over "small."
Taña Dalglish Oct 21, 2020:
Eileen Re your question. This is your previous question: https://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish-to-english/business-comme... GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase: Colegio de Pequeño Derecho
English translation: rights management entity (Colegio de Pequeño Derecho)
I only entered references as there are few hits for the term "Colegio de Gran Derecho" , not that the term used in the translation is good! (I don't think that it is!).
Eileen Brophy (asker) Oct 21, 2020:
I am translating "Committee of Minor Law" for "Colegio de Derecho Pequeño" because it is in SGAE and not a legal entity as such. Was that a mistake I have made in the past?

Broad / Wide-Range Copyright Protection Association

- as opposed to Colegio de Pequeño Derecho> Limited 'Thin' (see below) or Narrow-Range Copyright Protection Association.

I think that, in English Common Law, the distinction would be drawn between strong, legally assigned copyright and weak, equitably assigned coypright or other performing rights.

Example sentence:

“Blurred Lines.” ...The outcome of the case hinged upon the court’s determination that Gaye’s work is entitled to “broad” (and not “thin”) protection.

The history of "gran derecho" and "pequeño derecho" is rooted in France (from 1791).

8.a La distinción entre obras de “gran derecho” y obras de “pequeño derecho”
http://emprendodanza.feced.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/20...
Page 21
Tradicionalmente se viene haciendo una distinción entre obras de pequeño derecho y
obras de gran derecho. Sin embargo, estos conceptos no se hallan recogidos en nuestra
Ley de Propiedad Intelectual ni en la legislación de otros países a nivel internacional
siendo una distinción que se generó en su momento en la práctica cotidiana de la gestión
de los derechos de autor.
Esta división entre pequeño y gran derecho tiene su origen en Francia. 14 En 1791, se
aprobó el Decreto sobre la Petición de los Autores Dramáticos en el que se recogía que
“Las obras de autores vivos no podrán ser representados en ningún teatro público en
Francia sin el consentimiento formal y por escrito del autor”. Así la Société des Auteurs
Dramatiques (SAD)15 empezó a aplicarla con la Comédie-Française. También se creó una
nueva organización llamada Bureau Central de Perception des Droits d´auteur16 por un
compositor y libretista, organización que alcanzó acuerdos con la Comédie-Italienne por
los que se estipulaba que al autor le correspondía una séptima parte de los ingresos
netos. A estas organizaciones vino a sustituirlas la Société des auteurs et compositeurs
dramatiques17 en 1829 que agrupaba a autores y compositores dramáticos de obras para
la escena y que gestionaba el derecho de éstos a cobrar un porcentaje por la
representación de sus obras en teatro, lo que se llamó “gran derecho”.

3.0 Grand Rights/Small Rights
One of the most important distinctions that needs to be made in this matter is the difference between what are called "Grand Rights" and what are called "Small Rights." Dramatic performance rights (Grand Rights) are not licensed by rights agents. Only non-dramatic rights may be licensed by these agents. Unfortunately, what constitutes a dramatic or non-dramatic performance is subject to many interpretations. Clearly, Grand Rights apply whenever a piece of music is used as underscoring in a play. It also seems to be clear that Small Rights apply to background music e.g. in a theme park. But what what about a grey area such as pre-show and intermission music? The answer seems to be that if the music is totally unrelated to a production, then it would be considered Small Rights. However, if the music could be shown in some way to be related to the main body of the production, it would be considered Grand Rights. So in some cases University ASCAP/BMI licenses may apply to these types of uses. However, one should be aware that even with these licenses, one could be found liable for violation of Grand Rights infringements.
Securing Small Rights clearances is a relatively simple matter (i.e. compared to Grand Rights). One needs only to apply and receive a license from the respective agency representing the artist at hand such as ASCAP or BMI. Securing Grand Rights clearances is another matter entirely.
