One of the most important themes of the conference is a discussion using legal, sociological, economical, philosophical, and political knowledge of the problems of the Intellectual Property in the U.S. and the European Union.
Proposed (sample) thematic areas of your conference presentation:
β€’ objects that are protected by Intellectual Property Law
β€’ protection of Intellectual Property Law rights in European countries and the United States
β€’ patents
β€’ institutions that were set up to protect Intellectual Property Rights
β€’ important case law
β€’ social, economical, legal, political aspects of protecting inventions and art
β€’ topics in fashion law
β€’ international IP regulation
The thematic areas mentioned above are to be treated only as examples. Moreover, presentations may be of an interdisciplinary nature, combining various fields of knowledge. Hence, we encourage you to submit abstracts that go beyond the above list. While we will give preference to abstracts of a comparative nature, feel free to submit an abstract about an institution or problem specific to a particular nation state (e.g., the United States, Germany, France) or the EU in general.
