THE INTERFACE BETWEENINTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSAND COMPETITION

POLICYThe purpose of this book is to examine the experience of a number ofcountries in grappling with the problems of reconciling the two fields ofcompetition policy and intellectual property rights. The first two partsof the book indicate the variation in legislative models as well as thewide variety of judicial and administrative doctrines that have beenused. The jurisdictions selected for study are the three major tradingblocks with the longest experience of case law, the EU, the USA andJapan, and three less populous countries with open economies,Australia, Ireland and Singapore. By setting out the legislative andjudicial and administrative alternatives available in those constituencieswith some experience of dealing with the interface, this research studyprovides areference work whichcanbeused as a resource to throw

competition law and intellectual property rights areexamined. Separate chapters analyse: (i) the issue of parallel trading andexhaustion of IPRs, a system of legal rules that creates its own interfacewith the exercise of IPRs alongside the competition rules, (ii) the issueoftechnologytransfershowingtheimportant

differencesbetweeninter-national IP licensing and foreign direct

investment as well as highlight-ing how limits on technology spillover are set in bilateral investmenttreaties, and (iii) the economics of the interface between intellectualproperty and competition law to suggest how economic thinking mayfind a way of interacting with legal argument in this field.
