Chinese Intellectual Property:Law and Practice

Chinese Intellectual Property:Law and Practice
Although there is intellectual property protection in China, many companies, wary of China’s much-publicized reputation for counterfeiting and piracy, fail to enter the largest developing market in the world because of an excess of caution. By detailing protection procedures that work, this very practical handbook opens the door to a secure presence in the Chinese marketplace.

Chinese Intellectual Property Law and Practice covers every step a company’s counsel or patent agent needs to take, from registration of rights to invoking the effective enforcement methods now in place under Chinese law, in order to ensure effective protection of copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade names, trade secrets, and licensing arrangements in China.

Written by a panel of active Chinese trade authorities–including practicing lawyers, academic specialists, and even a private investigator–the book shows how to:

  • transfer intellectual property when investing in China license products and services successfully in China
  • challenge unfair trade activities successfully via the US International Trade Commission and other non-Chinese authorities
  • use Chinese media and communications to undermine piracy and foster good will
  • secure strong judicial enforcement against copyright infringement
  • combat creative theft of IP rights, especially on the Internet
  • evaluate the efficacy of a factory raid

    Also included are numerous case studies from specific industries (including software, sporting goods, publishing, and luxury goods), a model contract, a bibliography, and a list of web sites.

    Madame Bovary (Norton Critical Editions)

    Madame Bovary (Norton Critical Editions)

    The text of this Norton Critical Edition is based on Eleanor Marx Aveling’s celebrated translation, revised by Paul de Man.

    Margaret Cohen’s careful editorial revision modernizes and renews Flaubert’s stylistic masterpiece. In addition, Cohen has added to the Second Edition a new introduction, substantially new annotations, and twenty-one striking images, including photographs and engravings, that inform students’ understanding of middle-class life in nineteenth-century provincial France. In Madame Bovary, Flaubert created a cogent counter discourse that exposed and resisted the dominant intellectual and social ideologies of his age. The novel’s subversion of conventional moral norms inevitably created controversy and eventually led to Flaubert’s prosecution by the French government on charges of offending “public and religious morality.” This Norton edition is the only one available that includes the complete manuscript from Flaubert’s 1857 trial. “Criticism” includes sixteen studies regarding the novel’s central themes, twelve of them new to the Second Edition, including essays by Charles Baudelaire, Henry James, Roland Barthes, Jonathan Culler, and Naomi Schor. A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.

    The International Protection of Designs

    The International Protection of Designs
    Design is integral to our everyday lives to the extent that sometimes we are scarcely aware of it. It is manifest in every industrial sector from clothing to furniture, packaging to jewellery, household goods to toys, while at the same time it is intrinsic to the purely aesthetic domain of the visual arts. This book examines the ways in which the creator of such designs may seek to protect their work from exploitation across national boundaries.

    The work provides a basic introduction to the international legal instruments by which international protection for designs may be secured. It analyses both the Hague Agreement concerning industrial designs, which sets out a procedure for international deposits, and the Berne Convention covering literary and artistic works, which provides wider protection without registration formalities.

    The analysis includes the principles underpinning these instruments, the scope of protection offered, the conditions and formalities required, and the way in which the instruments interface with national intellectual property legislation. Lists of parties to the instruments and the text of the instruments themselves are included in annex.

    This book will be of great value to practitioners and researchers working in the field of intellectual property law and those they advise, as well as to designers and manufacturers.

    Configuring the Networked Self: Law, Code, and the Play of Everyday Practice

    The legal and technical rules governing flows of information are out of balance, argues Julie E. Cohen in this original analysis of information law and policy. Flows of cultural and technical information are overly restricted, while flows of personal information often are not restricted at all. The author investigates the institutional forces shaping the emerging information society and the contradictions between those forces and the ways that people use information and information technologies in their everyday lives. She then proposes legal principles to ensure that people have ample room for cultural and material participation as well as greater control over the boundary conditions that govern flows of information to, from, and about them.
