China in Global Governance of Intellectual Property

More about the book

Focusing on China's role in global intellectual property (IP) governance, this analysis delves into five specific cases, including geographical indications and standardization. It adopts a regulation-oriented perspective, highlighting the involvement of various actors and the principles guiding China's engagement. By emphasizing processes over outcomes, the book offers a nuanced understanding of China's position, challenging the simplistic view of it as merely a rule-taker or rule-maker in the global IP landscape. The implications for global distributive justice are also explored.
