This book provides a contemporary overview of developing areas of copyright law in the Asian Pacific Region. While noting the tendency towards harmonisation through free trade agreements, the book takes the perspective that there is a significant amount of potential for the nations of the Asian Pacific Region to work together, find common ground and shift international bargaining power. Moreover, in so doing, the region can tailor any regional agreements to suit local needs. The book addresses the development of norms in the region and the ways in which this can occur in light of the specific nature of the creator-owner-user paradigm in the region and the common interests of Indigenous peoples.

Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. A Research Agenda for Intellectual Property Law and Gender expertly examines patent, copyright and trade mark law, bringing to light hidden gender biases and narratives that impact intellectual property law and practice today. Exploring how gender discrimination and inequality are often built into the way the law functions, it assesses the possibilities and limits of existing strategies to improve gender inclusion and equality, and paves a research agenda for the future.
