The Regulation of Services and Intellectual Property: Volume III (The Library of Essays on International Trade Law and Policy) by Bryan C. Mercurio

by Markus Krajewski

International rules on trade in services and intellectual property are ’new’ additions to the multilateral trading system, but both have played an important role in the system since their entry. Accompanied by a detailed introduction, this volume contains essays which cover not only the law and jurisprudence of these topics but also the underlying economics and politics behind their incorporation into the multilateral system and continued prominence. The volume provides readers with a comprehensive overview of the development of these controversial and increasingly important areas of international trade law.
