The Interface Between WIPO and Paris Convention in Protection IPR

doi:10.7176/iags/92-02

Abstract

This research work aims to establish a link between WIPO and Paris Convention from national and international perspectives. Furthermore, the lack of implementation of legislation at the national level is one of the greatest setbacks in the history of IPR protection. Basically, the value of human rights is largely tested by its implementation. The earlier form of Industrial property underwent a transformation after the Paris Convention to be nomenclature as Intellectual property. IPRs, such as patents, plant variety protection, copyrights, and trademarks, are exclusive monopoly rights over a creation that the society provides to the inventor for a period of time. While such monopoly protection obviously restricts the dissemination of knowledge, it is supposed to be counterbalanced by the incentive that it provides to innovate. Intrinsic, natural, interrelated, indivisible, inalienable, basic, instrumental, and inherent rights are ought to be protected if required, for maintaining peace in the society. Imperialism, colonialism, and inequalities among the states were some reasons of concern for the development of IPR.

Summary

Introduction

International intellectual property law is a patchwork area of intersecting multilateral and bilateral agreements and their resulting harmonization of national laws. It has become an increasingly important and frequently litigated area, in the patent, copyright, and trademark arenas. In the past few decades, there have been louder calls for the protection of domain names, databases, software, and traditional knowledge. Many of these cutting-edge intellectual property issues are addressed on an international level through the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). With increased interest in international intellectual property law, there are numerous high-quality electronic resources that cover various facets of this ever-changing area
