Intellectual Property and Sustainable Markets

Edited by Ole-Andreas Rognstad, Professor of Law, Department of Private Law and Centre for European Law and Inger B. Ørstavik, Professor of Law, Department of Private Law and Centre for European Law, University of Oslo, Norway

'This is an excellent book which explores an important issue for scholarship and society. The editors have drawn together high-quality scholars from a diverse range of geographical and legal disciplinary backgrounds. They have delivered a work which crosses silos and engages directly with the cultural, commercial, market-based and technological elements with which intellectual property and sustainability are entwined. The contributions are of individual significance and the work as a whole will be of interest to scholars, policymakers and industry as they develop their future paths to combining and delivering the key goals of sustainability, sustainable development and appropriate protection for IP.'
