This review of “A Neofederalist Vision of TRIPS,” by Graeme Dinwoodie and Rochelle Dreyfuss, engages the book's central argument that TRIPS is not a code but a “neofederalist” regime that imposes basic substantive expectations in order to promote coordination but which nonetheless preserves considerable member state autonomy. The review discusses the book's primary contributions to scholarship about TRIPS, including its refutation of the “code” vision of the TRIPS agreement and its overview of arguments that could be marshalled to defend local innovations in intellectual property policy making. The review also locates the book and its consideration of the TRIPS regime within larger conversations about the fragmentation of norms and law and the challenges of treaty interpretation. Finally, the review notes a few areas for further research, including with respect to the interpretive authority delegated to panels and the political context in which they operate.

This book examines the impact and shortcomings of the TRIPS Agreement, which was signed in Marrakesh on 15 April 1994. Over the last 20 years, the framework conditions have changed fundamentally. New technologies have emerged, markets have expanded beyond national borders, some developing states have become global players, the terms of international competition have changed, and the intellectual property system faces increasing friction with public policies. The contributions to this book inquire into whether the TRIPS Agreement should still be seen only as part of an international trade regulation, or whether it needs to be understood – or even reconceptualized – as a framework regulation for the international protection of intellectual property. The purpose, therefore, is not to define the terms of an outright revision of the TRIPS Agreement but rather to discuss the framework conditions for an interpretative evolution that could make the Agreement better suited to the expectations and needs of today’s global economy.

In light of the controversy of the Philip Morris cases against Australia and Uruguay, this book systematically explores trade marks and brands as foreign direct investment, and in particular their substantive protection under international investment treaties. With the use of various hypothetical examples of devaluation of investments made in brands, the book explores the specifics of arbitrating investment claims arising out of state trade mark regulation.

Under the auspices of the Max Planck Institute for Intellectual Property and Competition Law (now the Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition). And Institutum Iurisprudentiae, Academia Sinica, a group of twenty scholars from around the world gathered to study the experiences made with regards to compulsory licensing. The results are demonstrated in this book. Different articles analyze how the international conventions on intellectual property may be interpreted and explore the related doctrinal groundwork surrounding compulsory patent licensing and beyond. It is shown how the compulsory licensing regime could be transformed into a truly workable mechanism facilitating the speedy use and dissemination of innovation and other subject matters of protection.
