LAW 329 Intellectual Property: International Law School Recommended for route(s): [ Litigation ] Environmental Law: Clean Tech Why it is relevant for ... [ Litigation ] as a Key Elective : It is important for environmental lawyers, especially those interested in an international practice, to have an understanding of international IP law. Increasingly, innovative technologies play a key role in addressing many environmental issues. This is especially true in the area of pollution and harms to public health. Intellectual property rules affect the quality and availability of innovative ideas and products necessary to improve our standard of living. One way to achieve environmental protection is through coupling incentives for innovation in beneficial technologies with restriction on harmful technologies. This course reviews the principal legal systems and international treaty arrangements for the creation and enforcement of intellectual property rights in foreign markets. Students should consider taking 1 or more courses addressing intellectual property issues. General course Description: Music, motion pictures, even books travel instantaneously around the globe. So do patented inventions; so do brands and trademarks. Copyright and trademark licenses increasingly take foreign exploitation into account. Litigation over an important patented invention often proceeds on several foreign fronts. No lawyer practicing intellectual property law today can afford to overlook the substantive and procedural differences that separate one country's law from another's. This course will focus on the counseling considerations that surround the exploitation of intellectual properties in domestic and foreign markets through licensing, litigation, or both. The course will survey the principal legal systems and international treaty arrangements for copyright, patent, trademark and neighboring rights, as well as questions of jurisdiction, territoriality, national treatment and choice of law. Course Style: A Substantive course teaches the law, theory, and policy in a particular area of law Course Frequency: Offered once a year |
