Protectionism, Futile to Crisis

With a deepening economic crisis and rising calls for public assistance in sectors ranging from finance to autos, there are also signs of growmg nervousness about the dangers of protectionism. The real worry is excessive use of antidumping, countervailing duty, and safeguard protection, misguided public subsidies, rising protection in the poorest countries, and temptation in the US Congress to violate existing treaty commitments. In order to shift the burden of the crisis on to trading partners to the highest possible extent, the trading powers of both the 1930s and the 1980s relied on the in- strument of protectionism and thus on the walling-off of their own markets. These trends can also be discerned in the current financial crisis.

An Overview of the IP Enforcement System in China

For more than two decades after the Trademark Law of the People's Republic of China entered into force in 1983,China has formulated a series of IP-related laws and regulations, including among other things, the Patent Law, Trademark Law, Copyright Law and Unfair Competition Law. Besides, it has acceded to many international IP treaties and established an adequate system for IP protection. In particular, China has drawn more on the mature practices of the Western countries with respect to the conditions and requirements for grant of the intellectual property rights, which has made the legal system for the protection of the intellectual property rights in China readily understandable and acceptable to foreign interested parties. By contrast, China has mostly followed the existing civil, administrative and criminal liability system in its construction of the IP-related enforcement system, thus rendering it more "characteristic of China". In fact, this "unique"system provides interested parties with more opportunities and approaches for them to enforce their rights.
