The Specially Protected Trade Marks: Lack of Clarity from the International Perspective

Abstract

World history of trademark regulation is quite long-standing. Derived from antic and medieval jurisprudence where Lex Cornelia or general delict rules were used as a legal frame for the merchant identity protection, leading to the first European special trade marks laws then on to the Paris Convention and other uniform international treaties we have now.
