Description

Product Description This important new book constitutes a serious examination of both the positive potential, as well as the deficiencies, of the TRIPS agreement. In the light of their analysis, the editors and their colleagues make a powerful case for wide ranging reforms. Intellectual Property (IP) law – particularly in relation to international trade regimes – is increasingly finding itself challenged by rapid developments in the technological and global economic landscapes. In its attempt to maintain a responsive legislative system that is interacting successfully with global trade rules, IP is having to respond to an increasing number of actors on an international level. This book examines the problems associated with this undertaking as well as suggesting possible revisions to the TRIPS agreement that would make it more relevant to the environment in which today’s IP mechanisms are operating. The overall aim is to find an adequate response to the ‘IP balance dilemma’. The theme is pursued throughout various topics, including a look at what this means in relation to the economy in a country like China, and also considering how IP is increasingly having to reconcile itself with human rights issues. This book will appeal to academics, policy makers and post-graduate students in IP and international trade law, as well as related fields, such as development and human rights. Review ‘This book is essential reading for anyone interested in intellectual property, global trade, international law, human rights, development, and competition. While many have lamented the impact of the TRIPS Agreement on the creative environment and social welfare, the heart of the volume is a deeply thoughtful, well-considered proposal for modifying the Agreement. The lead-up is equally compelling: essays by renowned experts describing the substantive, procedural, and institutional problems encountered post-TRIPS and an examination of socially responsible ways to promote innovation.’ -- Rochelle Dreyfuss, New York University, School of Law, US ‘This book culminates Professor Annette Kur’s longtime engagement in critique and reform of dominant IP patterns. Throughout several authoritative essays – many by Professor Kur herself – the book provides a comprehensive and in-depth overview of the ever growing academic efforts which, at an international level, struggle to reshape IP law paradigms in tune with the enhancement of public goods and interests – even beyond the mere perspective of IP law’s intersections with competition and consumer welfare in strict sense. This work constitutes a “must” for all those who, at any level of function and responsibility, engage in overcoming an historic unbalance that has so far basically precluded an adequate reconciliation of IP law with fundamental societal needs.’ -- Gustavo Ghidini, University of Milano, and LUISS University, Rome, Italy About the Author Edited by Annette Kur, Professor, Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition, Munich, Germany
