Trademark Protection and Territoriality Challenges in a Global Economy PDF

As the modern business world becomes increasingly decentralized and globally focused, traditional interpretations and applications of trademark protection law are facing greater and greater challenges.

This is particularly true regarding the principle of trademark territoriality, which holds that trademark rights are bound by the laws of individual nations.

This timely volume offers expert analyses of the challenges facing crucial aspects of trademark law from some of the most prominent scholars in the field.

The contributors explore how the rise of international trade and globalization has changed the way trademark law functions in a number of important areas, including protection of well-known marks, parallel imports, enforcement of trademark rights against counterfeiting, remedies, protection of certification marks, and domain names.

A detailed discussion of the history of trademarks and territoriality along with a comprehensive breakdown of current issues make this a complete and well-rounded resource for the study of trademark law in a contemporary context.

Students, professors and practitioners working in international law, trade law and intellectual property law will find this book to be a valuable resource.
