Nari Lee, Nilas Bruun and Mingde Li (eds.), Governance of Intellectual Property Rights in China and Europe, Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd, 2016.

Intellectual property is playing a very important role in social and economic development and the relevant rules of protection have been developing continuously along with technological innovation and the evolution of commercial mode. Meanwhile, intellectual property is closely related to international trade and a series of international rules on the protection of intellectual property right have been developed. This book carries out a comprehensive comparison and analysis of several issues relating to the governance of IP, the IP protection systems and their reform in China and EU. It points out that the successful governance of IPR requires not only adopting a series of institutions and norms, but also giving full play to the role of enforcement organs. IPR-related issues have recently received much attention from the academic circle. This book carries out in-depth exploration and analysis of a series of issues in the IPR systems in China and EU, including the revision of the relevant laws. As a part of book series Elgar Intellectual Property and Global Development, it consists of three parts: Intellectual Property for Innovation and Creativity in China, Comparing Concepts and Norms in Chinese and European IP Law, and Governance of Practices and IP Enforcement. As such, it is an important tool for scholars and practitioners to better understand issues relating to IP laws and the reform and development of IP systems in China and EU.
