International Intellectual Property in An Integrated World Economy
(International Intellectual Property in an Integrated W...)
International Intellectual Property in an Integrated World Economy provides students with a comprehensive introduction to the global system regulating intellectual property rights. The authors use meticulously selected case decisions from different national, regional, and multilateral courts and dispute settlement bodies to illustrate the application of legal principles, as well as to introduce the impact the treatment of intellectual property rights may have on a range of social and economic interests.
This outstanding text recognizes that students today need to understand intellectual property concepts in the context of a global economy. This unique teaching tool:
- explores the technical aspects of intellectual property rights practice and the context in which decisions are made and carried out
- explicitly addresses the importance of technology developments for intellectual property, including how the international intellectual property system may be adapting to pressures for change
- explains the roles of various multilateral organizations in the regulation of intellectual property rights, including the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the World Trade Organization (WTO), and how other regulating organizations, such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO), are involved
- analyzes the role of regional organizations such as the European Union (EU), the European Patent Office (EPO), and the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO), as well as explaining the network of multilateral and regional trade agreements within the intellectual property rights system, and the mechanisms for the implementation of those agreements
- Provides important tools for future employment in a variety of public settings
The Teacher's Manual provides:
- an up-to-date detailed explanation of the subject matter of the book, expanding upon the underlying themes
- additional substantive content that will aid in class preparation
- links to international institution (and other) websites that can be used for classroom illustration of how the international intellectual property system operates

International Intellectual Property System, Commentary and Materials (International Banking, Finance & Economic Law Series)
(The 1990s will be remembered as an era of prodigious expa...)
The 1990s will be remembered as an era of prodigious expansion in world trade. Suddenly--for reasons encompassing irresistible new on-line technology, a vastly greater geographic reach, and sheer volume of goods and services--the old intellectual property (IP) laws and protocols long respected by international business became woefully inadequate. As a result, this masterful one-volume introduction to the new global regime of IP law fills an urgent need. Immediately recognized as the landmark work in its field, The International Intellectual Property System gives business lawyers everywhere the organized materials and expert commentary they need to protect IP rights on a global scale--and provides law students with an authoritative annotated survey of the relevant conventions, treaties, and laws both regional and national, as well as significant court interpretations in various jurisdictions. The book offers in-depth analysis of: • current international norms in the fields of patent, copyright, and trademark rights • national and most favored treatment in the granting of IP rights • regulation of IP rights in the European Union (EU) • enforcement under international legal instruments as well as under EU and US laws • such emerging areas as governance of IP rights on the Internet and in electronic commerce
