Download or read book History of Design and Design Law written by Tsukasa Aso and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-22 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, this book provides an up-to-date history of product design and product design law covering 17 countries — Japan, Korea, China, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden), Russia, the United States, Brazil and Australia — selected for their innovative or influential approach to design or design protection. Each country is the subject of two chapters — one on the history of design and the other on the history of design law — authored by experts in design and intellectual property (IP) law. This unique interdisciplinary approach explains why and how various national design protection systems (that can include design, copyright, trade mark, competition and civil laws) developed, making it an ideal book for students, researchers and lawyers. The book also serves as an international survey of different national policy and legal responses to historical developments and specific design and legal issues allowing readers to consider their advantages and disadvantages — and so is also recommended for policy and law makers, as well as organizations that administer IP rights. Topics include the subject matter of design protection; procedural and substantive requirements; design registration; infringement; and the overlap of design rights and other IP rights. The chapters on design history provide further context to the historical development of these legal concepts by considering major design movements, key designers and iconic designs and the current state of design. The chapters highlight the connected and often complementary relationship between the two histories, not only for each country, but at the regional and international level, often as a result of government policies, trade, colonialism, immigration and globalisation. Design and design practice continue to become more global and evolve with developments in technology. At the same time, design laws are not internationally harmonized and continue to develop at the national level, with a number of significant changes occurring in recent years. This timely book shows how the lessons of the past continue to inform the future direction of design and the legal systems developed to protect it.
Download or read book The Copyright Design Interface written by Estelle Derclaye and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protecting designs is complex and diverse; it involves deciding whether to protect them by design law, copyright law, or by both laws. A single protection may be under- or overprotective but two or more can be overprotective if there are no rules regulating the overlap. Legal systems in Europe and abroad have struggled to find the most adequate solution to this problem. This book traces the history of the design/copyright interface of fifteen countries, selected for their diversity in the way they dealt with the interface. It examines how these countries have coped with the problems engendered by the interface, the rules they applied to it over time and the reasons for legislative changes. This analysis reveals the most appropriate rules to regulate the interface at EU and global level and will appeal to academics, practising lawyers, judges, students and policymakers all over the world.

Download or read book Intellectual Property Law in France written by Nicolas Bouche and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph provides a survey and analysis of the rules concerning intellectual property rights in France. It covers every type of intellectual property right in depth – copyright and neighbouring rights, patents, utility models, trademarks, trade names, industrial designs, plant variety protection, chip protection, trade secrets, and confidential information. Particular attention is paid throughout to recent developments and trends. The analysis approaches each right in terms of its sources in law and in legislation, and proceeds to such legal issues as subject matter of protection, conditions of protection, ownership, transfer of rights, licences, scope of exclusive rights, limitations, exemptions, duration of protection, infringement, available remedies, and overlapping with other intellectual property rights. The book provides a clear overview of intellectual property legislation and policy, and at the same time offers practical guidance on which sound preliminary decisions may be based. Lawyers representing parties with interests in France will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative intellectual property law.
Download or read book Le droit du design Design Law written by Höpperger Marcus and published by Université de Genève. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage constitue le huitième volume de la collection p®opriété intelle©tuelle – intelle tual p operty (www.pi-ip.ch). Il rassemble les contributions qui ont été rédigées à l’occasion de la Journée de Droit de la Propriété Intellectuelle (www.jdpi.ch) organisée le 5 février 2015 à l’Université de Genève sur le thème « Le droit du design / Design Law ». Il ne fait pas de doute que l’apparence extérieure des produits qui nous entourent est susceptible d’exercer une force d’attraction importante, voire une fascination sur le public des consommateurs. Preuve en est la valeur phénoménale progressivement acquise par une firme californienne à la désormais célébrissime pomme – qui était, il faut le rappeler, au bord du gouffre il y a quelques années –. Cette firme a en effet su inventer ou réinventer des produits technologiques à destination de tous à la ligne épurée et attractive, qu’il s’agisse de téléphones, de tablettes ou d’autres produits électroniques. Il est certes clair que l’attractivité de ces produits ne tient pas exclusivement à leur apparence, mais également à leur convivialité et fonctionnalités technologiques. On ne peut toutefois pas doutes que leur « look » y contribue aussi (largement). Il n’est dès lors pas surprenant que nombre d’entreprises dans des secteurs et industries très variés consacrent d’importantes ressources et leur énergie créatrice à développer des produits au design unique, destiné à les distinguer de ceux de leurs concurrents. Comment le droit du design peut-il dès lors protéger cette créativité des produits et à quelles conditions ? Juger du pouvoir d’attraction de la forme d’un produit n’est pas tâche aisée. C’est en somme tenter de faire écho sur le plan légal à la phrase du célèbre designer Milton Glaser : « There are three responses to a piece of design : yes, no and … WOW. WOW is the one to aim for ». Pour explorer le domaine évolutif du droit du design, les auteurs des remarquables contributions qui composent ce livre se sont penchés sur diverses facettes de la thématique en droit international et national. Qu’ils soient chaleureusement remerciés pour leur précieux travail et que M. Pierre Heuzé qui s’est chargé des tâches d’édition du livre trouve ici aussi l’expression de ma vive reconnaissance.

Download or read book EU Trade Mark Law and Product Protection written by Lavinia Brancusi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book employs scholarly analysis to ground practical tools for applying the EU Trade Mark law (EUTM) functionality refusal grounds to address business needs when registering trade marks consisting of product characteristics. The study comprehensively examines the absolute grounds for a refusal of registration of functional signs under EUTM. It interprets the functionality refusal grounds through objective tests, focusing on the pro-competition rationale of denying trade mark exclusivity on product features that are technically or aesthetically important for competitors’ ability to trade in alternative products. The work takes a comparative approach looking at the US trade dress functionality doctrine, and a law and economics perspective on the role of trade marks and brands in the marketplace. It explores how competition rules related to market definition and the substitutability of products, as well as marketing and design findings related to branding and aesthetics, could be integrated into the legal assessment of EUTM functionality. The volume will be of interest to academics and researchers working in the areas of Intellectual Property Law, Trade Mark and Design Law, EU Law, Comparative Law, and Branding.
