European Intellectual Property Law provides a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of the core aspects of substantive European IP law, while also delving into their broader contextual framework and implications. Since the 1960s, the scope and influence of European law in the field of intellectual property have experienced exponential growth, rendering it challenging to treat European law as merely an auxiliary component to domestic intellectual property regimes. In response to this evolving reality, European Intellectual Property Law offers a clear and detailed account of each of the primary areas of substantive EU intellectual property law, situated within the broader context of the EU legal system and international IP law, including EU constitutional law, the 1973/2000 European Patent Convention, and private international law. By selectively drawing on examples from domestic IP regimes, the book aims to illustrate substantive distinctions between these regimes and demonstrate the profound impact of European law and decision-making on EU Member States. This unique and comprehensive approach extends beyond a mere discussion of the provisions of European legal instruments, delving into their wider contextual significance and consequences. European Intellectual Property Law serves as an invaluable guide for students seeking a thorough and critical understanding of the substantive European law of intellectual property.
