This book results from a conference held in Singapore in September
2009 that brought together distinguished lawyers and economists to
examine the differences and similarities in the intersection
between intellectual property and competition laws in Asia. The
prime focus was how best to balance these laws to improve economic
welfare. Countries in Asia have different levels of development and
experience with intellectual property and competition laws. Japan
has the longest experience and now vigorously enforces both
competition and intellectual property laws. Most other countries in
Asia have only recently introduced intellectual property laws (due
to the Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights
(TRIPS) Agreement) and competition laws (sometimes due to the World
Bank, International Monetary Fund or free trade agreements). It
would be naive to think that laws, even if similar on the surface,
have the same goals or can be enforced similarly. Countries have
differing degrees of acceptance of these laws, different economic
circumstances and differing legal and political institutions. To
set the scene, Judge Doug Ginsburg, Greg Sidak, David Teece and
Bill Kovacic look at the intersection of intellectual property and
competition laws in the United States. Next are country chapters on
Asia, each jointly authored by a lawyer and an economist. The
country chapters outline the institutional background to the
intersection in each country, discuss the policy underpinnings
(theoretically as well as describing actual policy initiatives),
analyse the case law in the area, and make policy prescriptions.
