The legal protection of geographical indications (GIs) is
characterised by a variety of approaches which translates the many
objectives attached to them. These range from protection of the
consumers and producers' interests against unfair competition
practices, to territorial development, to preservation of cultural
heritage and natural resources. Looking beyond formal legal
protection for GIs, this book seeks to re-draw attention to what
happens in the real world by exploring the opportunities and
constraints which influence whether regional product branding
initiatives are successful. It asks: what makes GIs work in
practice and does the type of legal protection matter? To answer
these questions, this book takes a comparative case study approach
and draws upon empirical data collected from 12 GI initiatives in
two countries, France and Vietnam. In doing so, this book not only
provides new insights and perspectives to the ongoing international
legal dispute over GIs, it also contributes to unpacking the
factors that make GIs work in practice to bring about economic and
non-economic benefits and ultimately support the empowerment of
local producers. This book will be of interest to legal academics
and practitioners as well as food sociologists, economists,
anthropologists and rural development experts.
