摘要
着作权法自诞生之日起就肩负着保护着作权人利益和保障公共利益的双重使命，通过维护着作权人的利益以鼓励作者进行作品创作和传播，最终促进人类科学文化事业的发展。传统条件下的私人复制对于平衡着作权人利益和公共利益起到了重要作用，是着作权法的基本内容。但是随着科学技术的快速发展，私人复制的合理性问题遭到了质疑，如何重新定位私人复制的性质，如何平衡着作权人和使用者的利益，是当前着作权法亟待解决的问题。
本文的第一部分概述了私人复制问题，首先介绍了私人复制从印刷术时代至数字网络时代的发展史，然后分析了私人复制的概念和特征，进而讨论了数字网络时代下私人复制的新特征以及数字技术给私人复制带来的冲击，主要有复制主体的泛化导致着作权法调整的失衡及私人复制的合理使用属性遭到质疑，由此引出了本文的讨论重点，即如何应对数字技术给私人复制和着作权法带来的危机。
第二部分介绍了美国版权法史中的私人复制问题，通过透析美国版权史上有关私人复制的经典案例如 Sony 案、Napster 案及 Grokster 案等，探究如何在保护技术进步前提下使私人复制使用者承担其应有的补偿责任，以平衡着作权人、私人复制使用者和技术提供者的利益。
第三部分分析了解决网络环境下私人复制应以价值衡平原则为指导，从“效率优先，兼顾公平”、“合理考量秩序、公正和效益的关系”及“利益衡平与补偿”等价值衡平总体要求出发论证了兼顾着作权人、使用者和技术提供者利益的重要性。探讨了网络环境背景下应对私人复制利益平衡问题的 “私人复制补偿金制度”及“由合理使用向法定许可过渡”等新对策，从而为我国的借鉴做铺垫。
第四部分梳理了我国着作权法视野下的私人复制问题，提出我国私人复制规制的不足，结合前面四部分的内容提出完善私人复制相关规定，改造合理使用制度。建设性的提出在网络环境下把法定许可和补偿金制度相结合，以更好的维护着作权人、私人复制使用者和技术提供者的利益。
