Book excerpt: "Intellectual property law faces the challenge of balancing the interests of rights holders and users in the face of technological change and inequalities in information access. Concepts of Property in Intellectual Property Law offers a collection of essays reflecting on the interaction between intellectual property and broader, more traditional notions of property. It explores the way in which differing interpretations of the concept of property can affect the scope of protection in the laws of copyright, patents, trade marks and confidential information. With contributions from leading and emerging scholars from a variety of jurisdictions, the book demonstrates how concepts of property can assist in shaping a conceptually coherent and balanced response to the challenges faced by intellectual property law"--Unedited summary from book cover

Download or read book Intellectual Property and the Law of Ideas written by Kurt Saunders and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ideas are the fuel of industry and the entertainment business. Likewise, manufacturers receive suggestions for new products or improvements to existing products, and retailers frequently receive ideas for new marketing campaigns. Many ideas are not new and may be used by anyone without the risk of incurring any legal liability, but some ideas are novel and valuable. If the originator of a potentially useful idea does not have the financial resources to exploit the idea, he or she may submit it to another, with the expectation of receiving compensation if the idea is used. Although an extensive body of intellectual property law exists to protect the rights of inventors, authors, and businesses that own valuable brands or confidential proprietary information, raw ideas receive no protection. Nevertheless, the originator of a potentially useful and marketable idea is not without legal recourse. The courts have developed, through a long line of common law precedents, legal protection for novel and concrete ideas under certain circumstances. The originator of an idea can rely on contract law, whereby the recipient may expressly or impliedly agree to pay for the idea. Alternatively, if the idea is disclosed in confidence, its unauthorized use by the recipient allows the originator of the idea to recover compensation. Finally, some courts have treated the ownership of ideas as quasi-property rights.
Download or read book Intellectual Property is Common Property written by Andreas Von Gunten and published by Buch & Netz. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defenders of intellectual property rights argue that these rights are justified because creators and inventors deserve compensation for their labour, because their ideas and expressions are their personal property and because the total amount of creative work and innovation increases when inventors and creators have a prospect of generating high income through the exploitation of their monopoly rights. In this essay, I will show that the classical arguments for the justification of private intellectual property rights can be contested, and that there are many good reasons to abolish intellectual property rights completely in favour of an intellectual commons where every person is allowed to use every cultural expression and invention in whatever way he wishes.

Book excerpt: Wissenschaftlicher Aufsatz aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich Jura - Medienrecht, Multimediarecht, Urheberrecht, Manipal University, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This work is an attempt to analyse the concept of intellectual property and to check its authencity as a ‘property’ on the basis of proprietary jurisprudence. It also tries to trace the roots of intellectual property rights in Indian legal and social system and to look for the need and justifications of intellectual property rights. Finally, it shall make an effort to derive something innovative. In the beginning, meaning, definition, subject matter, characteristics, kinds etcetera of property are discussed and the present status of concept of property is presented. The text introduces the concept of intellectual property and intellectual property rights and a detailed discussion on the history and development of intellectual property rights, in international arena as well as in India, is given. That followed, it measures the authenticity of the concept of intellectual property rights on the basis of proprietary jurisprudence, elaborates upon the different principles and checks the applicability of such over the concept of intellectual property rights. The concept of intellectual property rights is compared with the basic Indian thoughts. Basic ideas of different Indian philosophies, namely, the Sanatan dharma, the Islamic thoughts, the Sikh, Jain and Buddha philosophies, are given; and the concept of intellectual property rights from ancient to modern India are traced. Furthermore, the work investigates the need and justification of intellectual property rights through various theories and thoughts.

He has succeeded admirably: his book not only covers the field but also glitters with unexpected delights (the entry on "goodwill" is a must-read). This compendium is essential for the desktop (or laptop) of anyone whose work involves intellectual property.' – Robert C. Cumbow, Graham & Dunn PC, US 'Confused between community patent review and community patents? Lost in a thicket of dockets, rocket or otherwise? Let Peter Groves' Dictionary of Intellectual Property Law be your guide. Filling almost 500 often lighthearted, occasionally acerbic, but invariably fact-packed pages, the book takes you from the ActionAid Chip and the Air Pirates case through BIRPI, Cognating, Dockets, Evergreening; Jepson, Pedrick's cat and Simkins; PHOSITA, Trundlehumpers, the verb "to Uncopyright" and X-Patents, all the way to Zwart maken. Essential reading.' – David Musker, Partner, RGC Jenkins & Co. 'Do not be put off by the word "dictionary". This is a fascinating, witty and erudite little volume, packed with interesting and useful information on the whole gamut of intellectual property. It leaves one (this one anyway) hungering for more and wanting to delve more deeply into fields that have nothing to do with earning one's daily bread.' – Tony McStea, Senior Patent Attorney, Global Patents, Givaudan Schweiz AG 'This work is splendid. As an intellectual property litigator I ask, "why did no-one do it before"? Was it for lack of the creative idea, or did no-one have the diligence and erudition of Peter Groves to perfect it? and now that it has been done, we will wonder how we managed without it.' – Jonathan Turner, Barrister Intellectual property has a vast, perplexing and diverse vocabulary, and this enriching Dictionary provides a starting point for understanding new concepts and crafting precise definitions to meet the needs of a particular case. Not only are new words and phrases being coined as technology changes and the law follows, but also the international scope of intellectual property means that IP lawyers will encounter foreign words and phrases. With over 1000 expressions defined clearly and entertainingly, this book should be the first reference point to understanding intellectual property terminology. It will be particularly helpful to practitioners when they encounter expressions they have not seen before which they need to understand the true meaning and definition of. Students finding unfamiliar terminology and concepts will also appreciate the instant explanation available from this essential resource.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.
