Description

This clearly-written casebook discusses public international intellectual property law (the obligations regarding intellectual property protection undertaken and imposed on states) found in treaties and similar instruments. It also includes extensive discussion of the acquisition and enforcement of intellectual property rights internationally by private rights holders. This latter discussion encompasses treatment of international and regional industrial property registration agreements. The authors include materials relating to all forms of intellectual property: patents, copyrights and related rights, trademark and unfair competition, trade secrets, geographical indications, and industrial designs.
