Abstract: The concept of copy right started in England in 1476 after William Kickstand invented the printing method with the movable printing letters. Commercial and economic approach is more concerned with the right providers and investors, it rooted in Anglo-Saxon countries and the other is copyright that the cultural approach was raised by France. This study seeks to examine the extent and scope of the right of literary and artistic copyright in Iranian law. The main logic of the field of copyright is to defend the rights of those who somehow play a role in the creation of scientific and cultural works and usually the law of the countries consider them the ersearch (or writer, poet, composer, painter, songwriter and the like) and recognize two rights for them as economic and spiritual rights; provided the original work and also authorized use of the past works. Economic rights are exclusive rights to exploit any financial use of the work and including the rights to reproduce, distribute, publicly display, adaptation, translation, public reporting, dissemination and so on. The characteristics of the economic rights of the author: tangible and objective, original and innovative, the portability and the economic value of the work. In this study, the scope of financial copyright in six parts: the supported works, the conditions of supporting the works, different kinds of works, the non-supported works, the supported works in terms of the author and exploitation of the economic rights related to copyright have been studied.
