Synopsis

This book focused on products with specific physiognomies, qualities or a reputation ensuing essentially from their geographic/earthly origin. This peculiarity can be attributed to the distinctive native features of the product, its history or its distinctive characteristics linked to natural or human factors, such as soil, climate, local expertise and traditions. GIs can be used as a tool for sustainable and rural development, as a result of their locally tailored standard and multifaceted development approach, combining a market dimension (in relation to intellectual property rights [IPRs]) with linkages to public goods (heritage, food diversity, local expertise and local genetic resources, sociocultural identity, etc.) The prospects of geographical indications (GIs) as an intellectual property right (IPR) in the protection and the production of quality in agri-food sector as well as the challenges associated with traditional knowledge and traditional cultural expressions as the subject-matter of protection, was also addressed. The work identified the various existing legal framework used to protect GIs as well as the various international legal framework.
