In today's class we will be examining the differences between tools to protect intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, geographical indicators and copyright. We will then uncover how China organises its intellectual property system and who is in charge of administering the different tools. The final section of class then treats a specific case, namely Lego's disputes with copy-cat enterprises in the PRC, as well as the legal options available to them in Chinese courts.
