English As the World Trade Organization increases its control over intellectual property rights, more power is put in the hands of multinational corporations, especially with regard to patent rights. The results of this trend are a funnelling of capital and resources from developing countries. There is a growing debate over the legitimacy of the agreement, as it is antithetical to social justice and human rights. French En ces temps de hausse des contrôles sur les droits de propriété intellectuelle par l'Organisation mondiale du commerce, des pouvoirs accrus passent aux mains des corporations multi-nationales, en ce qui a trait aux brevets d'invention en particulier. Ces tendances ont pour résultats le passage de capitaux et de ressources des nations en voie de développement vers d'autres lieux. Ces tendances étant à l'antithèse de la justice sociale et des droits humains, la question de la légitimité des accords donne lieu à des débats grandissants. Spanish A medida que la Organización Mundial de Comercio aumenta su control sobre los derechos de propiedad intelectual, se pone mayor poder en manos de las corporaciones multinacionales, especialmente en el campo de los derechos de patente. Esta tendencia ha dado por resultado, en los países en vías de desarrollo, el provocar la extracción indebida de su capital y sus recursos. Crece hoy el debate sobre la legitimidad de tal acuerdo, ya que es antitético a la justicia social y a los derechos humanos.

Статья посвящена анализу организационно-правовых аспектов реализации прав интеллектуальной собственности лиц, осужденных к лишению свободы. Рассмотрен сложившийся опыт, особое внимание уделяется проблемным вопросам реализации осужденными личных неимущественных и исключительных интеллектуальных прав: связанным с приобретением права интеллектуальной собственности, затруднениям осуществления интеллектуальных прав, вызванным режимными требованиями. Творческая деятельность человека - одно из самых эффективных средств исправления, по мнению автора, поскольку именно она является высшей сознательной деятельностью. Поэтому необходимо поощрять и развивать в исправительных учреждениях данный вид деятельности, всемерно содействовать ее реализации. Предлагается создавать в исправительных учреждениях кроме уже имеющихся ресурсов специальные лаборатории, мастерские и т. п. центры для реализации творческой, в том числе научно-творческой потребности осужденных. При необходимости всячески содействовать осужденным при реализации процедуры получения патента. Кроме того, в рамках правового просвещения осужденных необходимо информировать о возможностях реализации авторского или патентного права в рамках имущественных отношений. This article is devoted to analysis of legal aspects of implementation of intellectual property rights of persons sentenced to deprivation of liberty. Abstract: the experience, a special attention is paid to the problematic issues of implementation of convicted persons of exceptional moral and intellectual rights: associated with the acquisition of intellectual property rights, difficulties in the implementation of intellectual property rights, caused by the regime requirements. Human creativity is one of the most effective means of correction, in the author's opinion, as it is the higher conscious activity. It is therefore necessary to promote and develop in correctional institutions this activity, to contribute fully to its implementation. It is proposed to establish in correctional institutions in addition to the existing resources of the special laboratories, workshops, etc. centers for the implementation of creative, including research and creative needs of prisoners. If necessary to fully support the convict in the implementation of the procedure of obtaining a patent. In addition, the legal education of prisoners should be informed about the possibilities of implementation of copyright or patent rights in the framework of property relations.

Patent Rights

Patent as a branch of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) serves to protect inventions on the field of technology, one of them being medicine. The rise on the number of cases on the theft of genetic resources and traditional knowledge on the field of medicine for commercialization purposes shows that the protection of patent rights on traditional medicine knowledge is still not optimal. This article is the result of a normative juridical research which is supported by an empirical data, examines the protection of patent rights on traditional medicine knowledge and the implementation of Article 26 of Law No. 13 of 2016 on Patents (Patent Law year 2016). In the research results, it was mentioned that even though the TRIPs Agreement did not accommodate the traditional knowledge, the presence of Patent Law year 2016 complemented the Indonesian government's efforts to save the knowledge of traditional medicines from biopiracy and misappropriation. It is necessary to regulate the disclosure obligation in TRIPs agreement and further mechanism regarding benefit sharing and granting access to traditional medicines knowledge. AbstrakPaten merupakan salah satu cabang Hak Kekayaan Intelektual yang berfungsi untuk melindungi invensi di bidang teknologi, salah satunya obat-obatan. Maraknya kasus pencurian sumber daya genetik dan pengetahuan tradisional di bidang obat-obatan untuk tujuan komersialisasi menunjukkan bahwa pelindungan hak paten atas pengetahuan obat tradisional masih belum maksimal. Artikel ini merupakan hasil penelitian yuridis normatif yang didukung dengan data empiris, membahas mengenai pelindungan hak paten atas pengetahuan obat tradisional dan implementasi Pasal 26 Undang-Undang Nomor 13 Tahun 2016 tentang Paten (UU Paten 2016). Di dalam hasil penelitian, disebutkan meskipun Perjanjian Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) belum mengakomodasi pengetahuan tradisional namun hadirnya UU Paten 2016 melengkapi usaha pemerintah Indonesia dalam menyelamatkan pengetahuan obat tradisional dari biopiracy dan misappropriation. Perlu pengaturan kewajiban disclosure di dalam Perjanjian TRIPs dan mekanisme lebih lanjut mengenai benefit sharing dan pemberian akses atas pengetahuan obat tradisional.

Patent Examination

We show that examiner-driven variation in patent rights leads to quantitatively large impacts on several patent outcomes, including patent value, citations, and litigation. Notably, Patent Assertion Entities (PAEs) overwhelmingly purchase patents granted by “lenient” examiners. These examiners issue patents that are more likely to be litigated by both PAEs and conventional companies, and that also have higher invalidity rates. PAEs leverage a specific friction in the patent system that stems from lenient examiners and affects litigation more broadly. These patterns indicate that there is much at stake during patent examination, contradicting the influential “rational ignorance” view of the patent office. (JEL K11, K41, O31, O34, O38)

Life Threatening

Compulsory licensing is defined generally as the granting of a license by a government to use a patent without the patent-holder's permission. As applied to international intellectual property rights, it allows governments to grant licenses for patent use in situations where the patent-holder is either not using the patent within the country or is not using it adequately. Most of the drugs for which compulsory licenses have been granted in India are used for treatment of life-threatening diseases. The pharmaceutical companies however object on the ground of violation of their patent rights. This chapter discusses the provisions for compulsory licensing in TRIPs and the India patent system.

South Korea is squarely involved in the global debates regarding the intersection between standard essential patents (SEPs) and competition law, as it is home to an active competition agency and major technology firms such as Samsung and LG that have rapidly advanced from being almost pure implementers/licensees to simultaneously becoming innovators/licensors in the information technology sector. The landmark case between Samsung and Apple was a major milestone in terms of the application of competition law to the exercise of patent rights by an SEP holder, in particular whether a filing of an injunction claim based on an SEP violated the law as an abuse of intellectual property rights. The Korea Fair Trade Commission has also shown substantial interest and activity in this area, as represented by its recent revisions of its intellectual property rights related guidelines, and with the Commission’s latest decision at the end of 2016 against Qualcomm, the debate around the exercise of SEPs is sure to be more vigorous than ever, in addition to expanding to new issues and dimensions.

Intellectual works that are aesthetic creations such as copyright and industrial design are relatively easy to obtain patent rights. Including the discovery of computer program methods, presentations on information found were easier to obtain patent licenses. Even so, there are also intellectual works that apparently cannot be patented. Here are intellectual works that cannot be patented: If the other party obtaining the transfer of rights from the inventor will have a patent for 20 years from the first day of the date of receipt. The rest, after 20 years the exclusive rights will become a public domain. Public domains are intended for the general public, of course, they continue to process licenses to patent holders. Patent rights in intellectual property rights have territorial principles. The territorial principle in this case the patent rights only applies in the country of the inventor submitting a patent application and given. Submissions are made by sending a letter of request to the Director General of Intellectual Property Rights (DJHKI). If the inventor obtains patent rights in Indonesia, for example, the patent rights obtained are not valid or do not have patent rights in other countries. The obligation of the inventor to obtain patent rights has the right to pay an annual fee. The fee is part of the cost of maintaining the patent up to the last year of the protection period. Patents will be legally lost if not paid for three consecutive years. The cost of maintaining patent rights is determined by PNBP Non-Tax State Revenues at the Ministry of law and human rights.

Patent Applications

Stronger patent rights will help innovators to protect their inventions in domestic and export markets, however stronger patent right exporting decisions depend on market expansion and market power effects. Although it is quite late to promulgate patent law, Vietnam began to record patent applications and granted them for both domestic and foreign firms from 1981 (patent law was enacted in 2005). However the number of foreign patent applications is different among Vietnam trade partners. I use a number of patent applications of Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and France to analyze the relationship between trade inflow from those countries and patent rights, I find that Japan applied for the greatest number of patents, which have increased over time. Japanese exports to Vietnam are dominated by market power effects, while other countries’ patent application numbers tend to fluctuate or increases insignificantly over time, with exports being dominated by market expansion effects.
