There
have been extraordinary changes in intellectual property (commonly
referred to as IP) law and policy over the last 20 years, many as the
result of their intersection with international trade and the numerous
international trade agreements brought into force during this period.
The increase in cross-border exchanges of goods, services, capital and
knowledge is one reason for this shift; structural changes in all
economies — with knowledge emerging as society’s most important tradable
economic asset — are another. Underlying this activity are changes to
intellectual property rights laws and policies.
