"The treatise covers fundamental principles of design law, setting forth the basic principles and noting where similar concepts exist in the different countries but use different terms; global design law, starting with an overview of the relevant international treatises, then country-specific chapters for China, the European Union, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States, each of which follow the same outline to facilitate comparison between the chapters; and strategies and considerations for global design protection, focusing on prosecution/acquisition strategies for design rights on a global scale and discussing coordination of enforcement/litigation of design rights in multiple countries. Each country-specific chapter includes an example case study of the same article (a blender) to illustrate the differences between the drawing requirements, statistics about design filings (timing, number of filings), and litigation (number of cases, decision outcomes) among the countries covered"--
As technological developments multiply around the globeâ€"even as the patenting of human genes comes under serious discussionâ€"nations, companies, and researchers find themselves in conflict over intellectual property rights (IPRs). Now, an international group of experts presents the first multidisciplinary look at IPRs in an age of explosive growth in science and technology. This thought-provoking volume offers an update on current international IPR negotiations and includes case studies on software, computer chips, optoelectronics, and biotechnologyâ€"areas characterized by high development cost and easy reproducibility. The volume covers these and other issues: Modern economic theory as a basis for approaching international IPRs. U.S. intellectual property practices versus those in Japan, India, the European Community, and the developing and newly industrializing countries. Trends in science and technology and how they affect IPRs. Pros and cons of a uniform international IPRs regime versus a system reflecting national differences.
