Intellectual property and private international law

Аннотация

The rapidly developing field of intellectual property and private international law could be difficult to navigate for practitioners and researchers because of the complex interface of the two legal disciplines. This book sets out the main concepts with a comprehensive analysis of issues arising from the relationship between the two disciplines from common law, European Union and international perspectives.

This new edition encompasses the numerous, and in some cases major, legal developments seen over the past twelve years
