Description
This book explores the interactions between intellectual property (IP) laws and other legal disciplines, examining potential policy implications raised by the growing influence of different legal frameworks on IP principles. Illustrating these issues, the book analyzes how they have shaped our understanding of IP laws and doctrines. Leading specialists debate the intersection of different areas of private, public and criminal law with intellectual property rights, drawing some forward-looking conclusions on the implications at legislative, judicial and theoretical level. In particular, they analyze such interactions as IP law and human rights, also delving into key administrative law influences on principles of copyright. They address the ways in which health law overlaps with IP law and demonstrate how the principle of good faith can be used in civil law cases. The book further outlines the relationship between fundamental areas of IP law, including patent law and regulatory data exclusivity, and real world applications such as public national security regulations. It identifies past and present challenges for trade secrets and criminal penalties, encouraging further research on the intersections of IP law with other legal fields. The Interface of Intellectual Property Law with other Legal Disciplines is a vital resource for scholars and students in IP law, public law, private law and criminal law. It is also beneficial to practitioners such as IP lawyers, in-house legal counsel and policymakers.
