内容説明

This book aims to answer two key questions: why is the scale of piracy and counterfeiting increasing despite the growth in the number of nations which have passed more effective laws? And what is the likelihood that TRIPS and the WTO will make a difference to this trend? The book takes a comparative approach, and focuses primarily on Nigeria and the UK. The book concedes that the adoption of minimum standards prescribed by TRIPS should improve the "laws in the books" and thereby address the legal factors militating against the curbing of piracy and counterfeiting. It is, however, argued that corresponding attention should be given to the "law in the streets", the economic and social factors which may influence effective enforcement of the laws in a post-TRIPS era.
