DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Everybody would agree that fair trade is a good thing. Farmers and suppliers in the developing world should be rewarded for their hard work. Profits should be equitably shared. If only it were that simple. Conor Woodman's explosive new book shows how fair trade has become big business in itself. And, in the process, many of the principles of fair trade have become distorted. Companies sign up to fair trade schemes that yield few practical benefits in order to gain competitive advantage. Money that could go to suppliers gets wasted on bureaucracy. Schemes that would genuinely help get ditched in favour of ones that just look good on paper. To explore the practical effects of all this, Conor Woodman travels the world to witness things at first hand. He visits lobster fishermen in Nicaragua who are dying in their hundreds to keep the restaurant tables of the US well stocked. He visits farmers in the Congo who are failing to benefit from supposedly ethical trading initiatives. And he ventures into war-torn Afghanistan to show what extremes paying lip service to fair trade can lead to."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe book delineates, with extraordinary clarity and precision, the working of unfair competition law throughout the European Union. Its four comprehensive chapters encompass: basic considerations of definition, subject matter, enforcement, and applicable law: international provisions under the Paris convention, TRIPS, and WIPO model law; analysis of relevant EC directives and regulations and ECJ jurisprudence; and extensive discussions of the national unfair competition laws of all 25 Member States. For each Member State, specific topics covered include such considerations as the following: sources of law; competition law in a nutshell; regulation of advertising; direct marketing; sales promotion; risk of confusion; disparagement, defamation; misappropriation, imitation; impediment of competitors; and breach of the law. The author also provides a selected bibliography of sources for each country. It would be difficult to find a more useful analysis of European Unfair Competition Law than this systematic study. It is practical, thorough, clarifying, and readable, all at the same time. The author untangles the most complex of apparent contradictions with impressive skill. Copies of this book will quickly take their places on the working shelves of interested practitioners, academics, and officials throughout Europe.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis handbook is designed to show that Section 337 investigations are an underutilized tool that should be in every IP practitioner's toolkit. Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 prohibits unfair competition related to the importation of products into the United States that infringe valid U.S. patents, copyrights, trademarks or embody a misappropriated trade secret. The United States International Trade Commission (ITC) is a federal agency that provides trade expertise to the government and oversees Section 337 investigations and proceedings. This timely handbook offers a guide to the intricacies of Section 337 procedure and demystifies the ITC as a legal venue in an effort to help practitioners select the optimal forum for their clients' cases. Both authors are seasoned attorneys who practice Section 337 litigation before the ITC, U.S. district courts and circuit courts of appeals, bringing a wealth of experience and guidance to the reader.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSince 2005 the law of unfair commercial practices has undergone a revolution. This book presents the first comprehensive and critical examination of Directives 2005/29/EC concerning unfair business-to-consumer commercial practices and 2006/114/EC concerning misleading and comparative advertising. The book offers the first detailed analysis of the various ways in which the two Directives have been transposed in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and France, with a particular focus on incorrect transposition. The analysis includes an overview of the enforcement possibilities before national courts and authorities, and as such will be a valuable source for all practitioners, policy makers and academics working in the field of unfair trade law. Ultimately the aim of the book is to expound a sound interpretation of the relationship between unfair trade law and competition law in Europe, and it therefore engages in an original examination of these two cornerstones of European economic law. The author argues that unfair trade law and competition law should be understood as 'living apart together' - complementary but autonomous and sometimes even conflicting.
