In this thoroughly revised and updated third edition, Michael Blakeney investigates the European laws regulating the use of geographical indications (GIs) in the marketing of agricultural products, food, wines and spirits, and cultural products such as handicrafts. He outlines the protection of European GIs outside the EU through bilateral trade agreements, as well as the protection of GIs of third countries within the EU.
Key updates to this comprehensive third edition include:
Revised examination of the objectives of GIs protection
A new chapter exploring Regulation (EU) 2023/2411 on GIs for craft and industrial products
Analysis of the impact of Brexit on GIs for British products in the EU and EU products in Britain
New content discussing the protection of wine GIs under the regulation on the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets (CMO)
Providing practical advice and analysis, this third edition continues to be an essential resource for legal practitioners of intellectual property, international economic law and trade law, advising or working within the agriculture, crafts and food industries in the EU. Policymakers and businesses marketing their products under GIs will also find this book beneficial.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'The book provides substantial international context that helps explain some of the changes to EU GI laws over time. In terms of the substance of the laws, this book takes a slightly different approach to many other IP textbooks. It has a more procedural focus and takes the reader through the provisions of the relevant EU Regulations, adding commentary and insights from the case law as needed.' -- Jocelyn Bosse, IPkat blog
