Download or read book To Steal a Book Is an Elegant Offense written by William P. Alford and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the law of intellectual property in China from imperial times to the present. It draws on history, politics, economics, sociology, and the arts, and on interviews with officials, business people, lawyers, and perpetrators and victims of 'piracy'. The author asks why the Chinese, with their early bounty of scientific and artistic creations, are only now devising legal protection for such endeavors and why such protection is more rhetoric than reality on the Chinese mainland. In the process, he sheds light on the complex relation between law and political culture in China. The book goes on to examine recent efforts in the People's Republic of China to develop intellectual property law, and uses this example to highlight the broader problems with China's program of law reform.

Download or read book Patent Challenge Clauses written by Michal Gal and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patent licensing contracts commonly prohibit licensees from challenging the validity of the patents at the basis of the contract or penalize such challenges. A considerable debate has emerged as to whether courts should enforce these challenge clauses. We argue that this debate has not gone far enough. Challenge clauses should be illegal under antitrust law. Our argument is based on two grounds. The first, doctrinal route, argues that this new antitrust offense is a natural extension of the logic of the Supreme Court's landmark case of Federal Trade Commission v. Actavis, decided three years ago. The second, normative route, shows that a normative foundation exists for recognizing this antitrust offense. We propose three cumulative conditions that should exist for a new antitrust offense to be realized, and show that they are met in the case of challenge clauses. Our conclusion challenges the existing laws and draws a new line between contract law and antitrust law, which is applicable to other cases as well.

Download or read book Intellectual Property Strategy written by John Palfrey and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-10-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How a flexible and creative approach to intellectual property can help an organization accomplish goals ranging from building market share to expanding an industry. Most managers leave intellectual property issues to the legal department, unaware that an organization's intellectual property can help accomplish a range of management goals, from accessing new markets to improving existing products to generating new revenue streams. In this book, intellectual property expert and Harvard Law School professor John Palfrey offers a short briefing on intellectual property strategy for corporate managers and nonprofit administrators. Palfrey argues for strategies that go beyond the traditional highly restrictive “sword and shield” approach, suggesting that flexibility and creativity are essential to a profitable long-term intellectual property strategy—especially in an era of changing attitudes about media. Intellectual property, writes Palfrey, should be considered a key strategic asset class. Almost every organization has an intellectual property portfolio of some value and therefore the need for an intellectual property strategy. A brand, for example, is an important form of intellectual property, as is any information managed and produced by an organization. Palfrey identifies the essential areas of intellectual property—patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret—and describes strategic approaches to each in a variety of organizational contexts, based on four basic steps. The most innovative organizations employ multiple intellectual property approaches, depending on the situation, asking hard, context-specific questions. By doing so, they achieve both short- and long-term benefits while positioning themselves for success in the global information economy.

Download or read book An Offensive Weapon written by Tejas N. Narechania and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1999, the Supreme Court invoked state sovereign immunity to strike down provisions in the patent and trademark laws purporting to hold states liable for the infringement of these intellectual properties. These decisions ignited a series of criticisms, including allegations that sovereign immunity gives states an unfair advantage in the exercise of state-owned patent rights. In particular, critics alleged two unfair advantages to state patentees. First, they alleged that states would favorably manipulate litigation. Second, they alleged that states would use their immunity from challenge to obtain broad patents or force private parties into licensing arrangements.An empirical study focusing on a sample of private and public universities, however, indicates that these allegations may not be completely true. State universities, as patentees, do not appear to be more successful litigants than their private counterparts. Similarly, state universities do not appear to be aggressively collecting weak patents. Nonetheless, there is empirical evidence indicating that state universities are increasingly aggressive licensors of their patents.Critics of state sovereign immunity suggest that such aggressive licensing practices force private parties to choose between ruinous damages suits and expensive license agreements, thereby raising the overall cost of innovation. In order to resolve this problem, both market and legal solutions have been suggested. A survey of these solutions reveals that a new legislative rule requiring states to opt in to the federal patent system by waiving their immunity to declaratory judgment actions is most likely to adequately resolve the problems created by aggressive state patent licensing.
