Contemporary Issues in Intellectual Property Law in Africa
Editat de Olasupo Owoeyeen Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 oct 2024
Despite intellectual property remaining a major issue in global trade governance, African countries have room to maximise the advantages that global intellectual property law can offer. Highlighting discourse on investment, intellectual property, and competition policies in Africa, the book underscores the need for African nations to develop intellectual property frameworks that can facilitate economic transformation. Using data from international intellectual property conventions, WTO dispute settlements and African regional organisation conventions, the book is a comprehensive call to action for African intellectual property lawyers and policymakers.
The book will be of interest to students and scholars in the field of intellectual property law and international investment law.
