【摘要】：近年来，涉及互联网络域名争议的案件迅猛增长。在这些案件之中，涉及域名与商标权利冲突的案例占据了相当大的数量。 由于域名和商标在法律性质上具有相似点和冲突点，但却分属于不同的保护管理体系，因而需要一个全新的纠纷解决机制来协调这两种权利间的冲突。 目前，对域名与商标争议案件基本上有三种处理途径，第一是由WIPO仲裁与调解中心以UDRP为仲裁规则，对争议案件作出仲裁决定；第二是由争议双方当事人向法院提起诉讼，由法院作出判决；第三是双方当事人私下解决，一般是通过支付对价转让的方式由一方最终获得域名的所有权。由于目前在世界范围内对于域名的权利属性及其法律地位，域名与知识产权的关系等基本问题在知识产权界、法学界就此问题还没有定论，并且在纠纷解决的实务方面，仲裁机构或法院也都对上述问题避而不谈，虽然域名与商标的纠纷从产生至今已有将近二十年的历史，但是与域名相关的法律问题仍处在探讨阶段。 由于各国对域名法律性质的定义不甚相同，且各国的法律制度关于商标权利、域名政策规定也有差异，必然造成在处理域名抢注侵犯商标权利的案件时认定标准不一。为了维护网络世界的正常秩序，世界知识产权组织力图为网络空间的权益纠纷制定一种争端解决机制，从而使全球范围内的域名纠纷的解决能够适用较为统一的一套标准。于是，世界知识产权组织（WIPO）、国际互联网名称和地址分配公司（ICANN）以及各国的网络域名管理机构均出台了一系列与域名与商标纠纷相关的解决政策。其中，《统一域名纠纷解决政策》（UDRP）作为一种强制性行政程序的统一域名争端解决机制，其设立有效地协调各国的商标法律、和与域名相关的各项法规政策，并且它还包含有一套详细的关于域名争议解决的实体规则和程序规则，是WIPO仲裁与调解中心裁决域名争端过程中所主要适用的实体法规则，构成了WIPO仲裁域名争议的实体法体系的主要法律基础。此外，这套类似于判例法的规则也广泛适用于与域名相关的仲裁案件和诉讼案件。因此，，对这些规则进行研究对我国以及世界范围内域名争端解决机制的健全和完善具有至关重要的意义。虽然UDRP给域名与商标纠纷的解决提供了一定的法律基础，但在如何适用UDRP规则方面，学界的相关研究并不多，特别是目前这种类似于判例法的仲裁方法，更需要对经典案例的整理总结，并在此基础上发现UDRP存在的缺陷，并针对问题提出解决方案。 本文从商标和域名的法律性质出发，分析二者产生冲突的原因和表现形式，通过对WIPO、ICANN和各国的域名纠纷的典型案例的分析与研究，结合现有的法律法规，对现有的商标与域名冲突解决机制进行总结，并在此基础上提出自己的建议和改进方法。
[Abstract]:In recent years, there has been a rapid increase in the number of cases involving disputes over domain names on the Internet. Among these cases, the number of cases involving conflicts between domain names and trademark rights has taken up a considerable number. Because domain names and trademarks have similarities and conflicts in legal nature, but they belong to different protection management systems, a new dispute resolution mechanism is needed to coordinate the conflict between the two rights. At present, there are basically three ways to deal with disputes over domain names and trademarks. The first is for the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center to take UDRP as the arbitration rule to make arbitration decisions in disputes; the second is for the parties to the dispute to file a lawsuit in court. The court will make the judgment; third, the parties will settle the matter in private, generally by paying for the transfer of consideration. One party will eventually acquire ownership of the domain name. Because of the nature of the domain name's rights and its legal status in the world at present, The relationship between domain names and intellectual property rights and other basic issues in the intellectual property field, the legal community has not yet decided on this issue, and in the practical aspects of dispute resolution, arbitration institutions or courts have also ignored these issues. Although it has been nearly 20 years since the dispute between domain name and trademark came into being, the legal problems related to domain name are still in the stage of discussion. Because the definition of the legal nature of domain name is not the same in different countries, and because of the differences of domain name policy in the legal system of each country about trademark rights, In order to maintain the normal order of the network world, the World intellectual property Organization (WIPO) tries to establish a dispute settlement mechanism for the rights and interests of cyberspace. So that a more uniform set of standards can be applied to the resolution of domain name disputes around the world. The World intellectual property Organization (WIPO), the Internet name and address Distribution Corporation (ICANN), and the national network domain name authorities have all issued a series of policies related to the resolution of domain names and trademark disputes. UDRP as a unified domain name dispute settlement mechanism for mandatory administrative procedures, Its establishment effectively harmonizes national trademark laws and regulations and policies relating to domain names, and it also contains a detailed set of substantive and procedural rules for domain name dispute resolution, It is the main applicable substantive law rule in the process of domain name dispute adjudication by WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center, which forms the main legal basis of the substantive law system of WIPO arbitration domain name dispute. This set of rules, similar to case law, is also widely applicable to domain name related arbitration cases and litigation cases. The study of these rules is of vital importance to the perfection and perfection of domain name dispute settlement mechanism in China and all over the world. Although UDRP provides a legal basis for the settlement of disputes between domain name and trademark, However, there are few researches on how to apply UDRP rules, especially in the current arbitration method similar to case law, it is necessary to sort out and summarize the classical cases, and find the defects of UDRP on this basis. And put forward the solution to the problem. Starting from the legal nature of trademark and domain name, this paper analyzes the causes and manifestations of the conflict between them. Through the analysis and study of the typical cases of WIPOOICANN and domain name disputes in various countries, combined with the existing laws and regulations, This paper summarizes the existing conflict resolution mechanism between trademark and domain name, and puts forward some suggestions and improvement methods.
