'Trademark law is territorial but trademarks, like trade, are increasingly global. Trademark owners often operate in worldwide markets where they are confronted with varying territorial legal rules about registration and even use of their trademarks. This apparent dichotomy between trade without borders and trademark laws with borders creates many challenging legal and practical issues which this volume tackles. This outstanding collection offers both specialists and novices insights into this complex topic. The editors are to be commended for their foresight in bringing this collection together.'

'The growing globalization of trade increases the challenges faced by trademark owners in the territories where they operate or plan to expand. Trademark owners thus have to find ways to solve the tension between global markets and territorial regimes of protection, which is precisely what this book explores from different angles and what makes it an essential work in today's borderless and brand-based economy. The result is a remarkable collection of original and thought-provoking chapters, which masterfully discuss the challenges and opportunities that the global economy presents, and will continue to present, for the territorial acquisition and enforcement of trademark rights.'
- Jacques de Werra, University of Geneva, Switzerland
As the modern business world becomes increasingly decentralized and globally focused, traditional interpretations and applications of trademark protection law are facing greater and greater challenges. This is particularly true regarding the principle of trademark territoriality, which holds that trademark rights are bound by the laws of individual nations. This timely volume offers expert analyses of the challenges facing crucial aspects of trademark law from some of the most prominent scholars in the field.
The contributors explore how the rise of international trade and globalization has changed the way trademark law functions in a number of important areas, including protection of well-known marks, parallel imports, enforcement of trademark rights against counterfeiting, remedies, protection of certification marks, and domain names. A detailed discussion of the history of trademarks and territoriality along with a comprehensive breakdown of current issues make this a complete and well-rounded resource for the study of trademark law in a contemporary context.
Students, professors and practitioners working in international law, trade law and intellectual property law will find this book to be a valuable resource.
