The International Period Sample Clauses

The International Period. The territorial period was dominated by the principle of territoriality, which is that intellectual property rights did not extend beyond a given territory.34 As states continued to interact with each other, it became important for them to have some international co-operation of some kind. This manifested itself through various bilateral agreements whereby works by nationals of one country could be protected in another country based on certain rules. Further due to the emergency of the problem of free riding, the United Kingdom 30 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx note 20, page 12 31 Ibid. Venetian Decree of 1474. 32 Patent office 2000: Five Hundred Years of Patents, UK Patent and Trademark Office: also found at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx.xx/patent/history/fivehundred/index.html 33 Article 1 section 8.8 1787 US Federal Constitution. 34 WIPO 1998 supra note 6 page 16. whose artists were most affected started negotiating bilateral treaties with other states to protect the works. The USA on the other hand being xxxxxxx00 in piracy did not bother much about such agreements and therefore remained isolated. In order to solve the piracy problem, the UK passed legislation which embodied the principle of reciprocity. This meant that foreign works could only be protected in the UK if the relevant states agreed to protect UK works. As a result of this many bilateral agreements were concluded between the UK and other European states.36 The USA engaged in the idea of national protectionism where only works by its own citizens and residents could be protected and no foreign works were ever protected in that country37. All this activity was in the area of copyright. Industrial property was not left out, some parts of it notably trade marks became subjects of bilateral agreements working on the principle of national treatment. This meant that states recognised the importance of not discriminating between works of nationals and foreigners in the regulation of intellectual property. States were therefore able to secure protection for works of their nationals in foreign countries.
