6A Study on the Protection of Strong Intellectual Property Rights under the WTO System

Abstract

Purpose : This paper examines how The U.S has led to global intervention in the issue of intellectual property protection and proposes a multilateral approach to the demand for a strong level of intellectual property protection. Research design, data and methodology : This paper examines the WTO agreement specially Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights(TRIPS) and analyzes the relevant articles, the developing history of the United States relating IP regime and IPR protection modes. Results : When emerging economies such as China, Brazil, and India become strong and innovative countries, and these countries reflect the US IPR system as it is in creating their intellectual property systems, it may eventually lead to a dilemma. Conclusions : A lot of effort is still needed for WTO member states, except for developed countries, to meet the high-level IPR protection and implementation system that the US insists on. Therefore, it would be most exemplary if the current TRIPS improvement could escape the dilemma of focusing on strong IPR protection and implementation.
