Description
Summary:Trademark scholarship has to date focused largely on the protection of trademark rights against consumer confusion and trademark dilution. Studies of limitations on trademark rights, meanwhile, have remained relatively peripheral, especially in jurisdictions outside of the United States. However, this treatment is incongruous with the importance of the limitations, such as descriptive and nominative uses, in promoting freedom of commerce, market competition, free speech, and cultural dynamics. Against this backdrop, Charting Limitations on Trademark Rights is the first comprehensive academic volume exploring limitations on trademark rights from both the theoretical and comparative perspectives. The volume presents new theoretical ideas justifying trademark rights limitations, re-examines their nature, delineates their scope, and offers comparative studies.
