Abstract

In the United States, many scholars analogize the right of publicity to copyright and some of them suggest a fair-use-like limitation. However, some Japanese lower courts remarked recently that publicity rights should be regarded as part of the rights of dignity. This article argues that publicity rights under Japanese law should be defined as interests in autonomous self-definition and analyzes the parallelism with the moral rights of an author in the Copyright Act.
