Book Bikes and Bloomers

Download or read book Bikes and Bloomers written by Kat Jungnickel and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated history of the evolution of British women's cycle wear. The bicycle in Victorian Britain is often celebrated as a vehicle of women's liberation. Less noted is another critical technology with which women forged new and mobile public lives—cycle wear. This illustrated account of women's cycle wear from Goldsmiths Press brings together Victorian engineering and radical feminist invention to supply a missing chapter in the history of feminism. Despite its benefits, cycling was a material and ideological minefield for women. Conventional fashions were unworkable, with skirts catching in wheels and tangling in pedals. Yet wearing “rational” cycle wear could provoke verbal and sometimes physical abuse from those threatened by newly mobile women. Seeking a solution, pioneering women not only imagined, made, and wore radical new forms of cycle wear but also patented their inventive designs. The most remarkable of these were convertible costumes that enabled wearers to transform ordinary clothing into cycle wear. Drawing on in-depth archival research and inventive practice, Kat Jungnickel brings to life in rich detail the little-known stories of six inventors of the 1890s. Alice Bygrave, a dressmaker of Brixton, registered four patents for a skirt with a dual pulley system built into its seams. Julia Gill, a court dressmaker of Haverstock Hill, patented a skirt that drew material up the waist using a mechanism of rings or eyelets. Mary and Sarah Pease, sisters from York, patented a skirt that could be quickly converted into a fashionable high-collar cape. Henrietta Müller, a women's rights activist of Maidenhead, patented a three-part cycling suit with a concealed system of loops and buttons to elevate the skirt. And Mary Ann Ward, a gentlewoman of Bristol, patented the “Hyde Park Safety Skirt,” which gathered fabric at intervals using a series of side buttons on the skirt. Their unique contributions to cycling's past continue to shape urban life for contemporary mobile women.

Book Intellectual Property and Access to Im material Goods

Download or read book Intellectual Property and Access to Im material Goods written by Jessica C. Lai and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, in order to be protected intellectual property goods have almost always needed to be embodied or materialised (and – to a certain extent – to be used and enjoyed), regardless of whether they were copyrighted works, patented inventions or trademarks. This book examines the relationship between intellectual property and its physical embodiments and materialisations, with a focus on the issue of access and the challenges of new technologies. Expert contributors explore how these problems can re-shape our theoretical notion of the intangible and the tangible and how this can have serious consequences for access to intellectual property goods.

Book The Making of Modern Intellectual Property Law

Download or read book The Making of Modern Intellectual Property Law written by Brad Sherman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-07-08 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the common themes in recent public debate has been the law's inability to accommodate the new ways of creating, distributing and replicating intellectual products. In this book the authors argue that in order to understand many of the problems currently confronting the law, it is necessary to understand its past. This is its first detailed historical account. In this book the authors explore two related themes. First, they explain why intellectual property law came to take its now familiar shape with sub-categories of patents, copyright, designs and trade marks. Secondly, the authors set out to explain how it is that the law grants property status to intangibles. In doing so they explore the rise and fall of creativity as an organising concept in intellectual property law, the mimetic nature of intellectual property law and the important role that the registration process plays in shaping intangible property.

  • Pages : 100 pages

Download or read book Harmful Trademarks written by Nadiya Farah and published by . This book was released on 2019-07 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zwischen 2013 und 2017 wurden rund 115 EU-Markenanmeldungen aus Grunden der Moral und der offentlichen Ordnung abgelehnt. Im Golf-Kooperationsrat (GKR; sechs arabische und islamische Lander) deuten Anekdoten darauf hin, dass einige dieser Ablehnungen auslandische Bewerber verwirrt und kulturelle blinde Flecken hervorgehoben haben. In diesem Zusammenhang wird in dieser Arbeit untersucht, wie drei arabische Golfstaaten, deren Hauptgesetzgeber das islamische Recht ist und die grosse Auswanderergemeinschaften haben, ein moralisches Verbot der Markenregistrierung auferlegen. Die Autorin stellt Vergleiche mit westlichen Rechtsordnungen an und untersucht drei Hauptfragen: 1) In welchem Umfang werden unmoralische oder grenzuberschreitende Marken/Waren in konservativen islamischen Landern, die Markenrecht in Ubereinstimmung mit dem Scharia-Recht anwenden, registriert? 2) Durch welche Argumentation werden Entscheidungen in dieser Hinsicht gesteuert? 3) Kann ein Begriff des "Schadens" unser Verstandnis der Macht von Marken und damit die von den Landern festgelegten moralischen Schwellenwerte verbessern? Die Autorin ist Expertin fur Innovation und IP-Vermarktung. Wahrend ihres Master-Studiums im Bereich des Gewerblichen Rechtsschutzes und des Wettbewerbsrechts in Munchen entdeckte sie ihre Leidenschaft fur das Markenrecht. Sie strebt nun eine Karriere im Bereich Markenrecht in Grossbritannien an.
