...a timely, comprehensive and important contribution to international IP research and scholarship...This book not only addresses various specific problems raised by FTA IP rules, but tackles important systemic issues. Henning Grosse Ruse-Khan IIC Review Issue 8/2009

Intellectual Property and Free Trade Agreements presents the papers of the sixth IP conference organised by the Macau Institute of European Studies (IEEM) on intellectual property law and the economic challenges for Asia. The objective of the conferences is to provide up-to-date information on developments in global intellectual property law and policy and their impact on regional economic and cultural development. The current volume deals with the implications of free trade agreements for the international framework of intellectual property law, a topic of enormous economic and legal importance given the increasing number of free trade agreements in force or under negotiation.
