Resumo
This article discusses industrial property rights in Brazil and their defense mechanisms, conducting a critical analysis of some of their shortcomings and their adaptation to the Brazilian reality. It evaluates the natural law and utilitarian theses, which are the two main pillars of industrial property defense. It questions the excessive punishability of the State in relation to piracy, which classifies behaviors and penalizes them with sentences that can exceed those for simple homicide. It carries out an analysis of the dilemma of industrial property protection, outlining the main conflicts of interest and the need for balancing to achieve equilibrium between the involved rights, while respecting the fundamental guarantees enshrined in the Federal Constitution. It further engages in a critical reflection on the economic, political, and social interests related to industrial property protection and the motivations behind its criminalization. Thus, employing the deductive method and conducting bibliographic research on articles, books, and laws, this study seeks to comprehend the historical construction of the right to industrial property, the influence of social transformations, its significance in contemporary societal development, and the safeguards established within Brazilian law. It concludes that there is an excessive punishment for violations of copyright due to the use of Criminal Law to classify acts of industrial property infringement. This protection infringes upon the rights and fundamental guarantees of the population, considering that, in light of the principles of proportionality and minimal intervention (ultima ratio), the topic should not be governed by Criminal Law but rather by other branches, such as Corporate and Commercial Law. Furthermore, it observes a latent judicial activism influencing verdicts to attempt to categorize violations of industrial property as more serious offenses, thus supporting the thesis that, beyond the interests of large industries, there is State interest in increasing fiscal revenue through repression.
