Intellectual property rights, conventionally seen as quite
distinct, are increasingly overlapping with one another. There are
several reasons for this: the expansion of IPRs beyond their
traditional borders, the creation of new IPRs especially at EU
level, the exploitation of gaps in the law by shrewd lawyers, and
the use of unfair competition as an alternative when IPRs are
either not available at all or expired. The convergence of several
IPRs on the same subject-matter poses problems. As they are
normally envisaged as water-tight categories, there are very few
rules which cater for the sort of regime clash that any overlap of
IPRs necessarily entails. This book's aim is to find appropriate
rules to regulate overlaps and thereby avoid regime conflicts and
undue unstructured expansion of IPRs. The book studies the
practical consequences of each overlap at the international,
European and national levels (where the laws of France, the UK and
Germany are reviewed). It then analyses the reasons for the
prohibition or authorisation of overlaps. This analysis enables the
determination of criteria and principles that can be used to
(re)map the overlaps to achieve appropriateness and legitimacy.
