This Supplement accompanies Chow and Lee's International Intellectual Property: Problems, Cases, and Materials. The new edition includes recent amendments and lists of members to the major international intellectual property agreements, European Patent Convention, and directives of the European Union.
Hardbound - New, hardbound print book. This new edition of the book is updated with the latest developments in the WTO, including the controversies created by the U.S. blocking of appointments of members to the Appellate Body and the U.S. trade war with China, the resulting concern over the WTO's future and possible existential crisis, the proposed temporary waiver to TRIPS obligations during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Appellate Body's decision in the dispute over Australia's plain packaging requirement. The new edition also adds significant new cases and controversies from the U.S., EU., and other countries, including: comprehensive discussion of Article 17 of the EU Directive on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market, India's first grant of a compulsory license to a patented drug, the EU's revocation of the EU trade mark for the shape of the iconic Ferrari 250 GTO, the UK's rejection of trade mark protection for "Nosecco," and the challenges businesses face in combating counterfeit products sold online in China. This edition remains concise and retains the features of the first that made it popular: clear expositions of the law and many short, practical, and straightforward problems that liven class discussions and draw home the lessons to the students. The casebook contains many excerpts of major international intellectual property treaties and can be used without the Documents Supplement. Students who wish to have the full text of the treaties can supplement their study with the comprehensive Documents Supplement.
This volume provides an in-depth approach to issues and problems currently confronted by multi-national enterprises ("MNEs") and other large foreign investors in China at the beginning of the 21st century. The volume examines legal, business, and strategic issues for foreign investors that are seeking to enter the China market and for those foreign investors already in China and seeking to expand or reorganize their operations. The volume takes an overall approach of the large foreign investor with a long term business plan for China and proposes a basic corporate structure for this investor. The structures involves a series of wholly foreign owned enterprises, joint ventures, and representative offices all under the control and ownership of one or more investment holding companies. Each of the entities in this structure are discussed individually and as part of an overall corporate conglomerate. The volume also examines the protection of intellectual property as a basic corporate business problem that should be part of the initial planning process as the foreign investor makes its initial move into China. Too often protection of intellectual property is not considered to be a priority until violations occur in China. Some prior planning and an emphasis on protecting intellectual property rights can be advantageous and help to avoid the serious problems that can later arise. This volume is written for those business and legal managers who are given heavy responsibilities for managing a China business but who lack a background in China. Because of the great interest in China by many MNEs, many business and legal managers are moving to China or are given additional responsibilities in the US for the MNE's new China operations. Many of these persons are expected to make decisions about a China operation even though they may lack even basic knowledge about the Chinese political, legal, and business environment. This is the first book written by an American lawyer designed to address this need.
