Abstract

LI, Ling. The sky is high and the emperor is far way: the enforcement of intellectual property law in China. Bol. Mex. Der. Comp. [online]. 2003, vol.36, n.108, pp.951-1010. ISSN 2448-4873.

In spite of the fact that since the 1970s China has passed domestic regulations and has signed several international treaties in connection with intellectual property, that country has not been able to provide effective protection to said kind of property. In this way, the author explains the causes of this situation and the possible alternatives. After explaining that the problem has its origins in the lack of efficiency of Chinese authorities, more than in cultural factors, the author examines the limitations of judicial and administrative authorities related to this matter. Moreover, she explains how it is that such authorities allow the violation of intellectual property rights, in order to protect the Chinese economy. Finally, she argues that the World Trade Organization can play an important role in the consolidation of effective protection of intellectual property in China.

Keywords : intellectual property; international trade; international treaties.
