This wide-ranging Research Handbook is the first to offer a stimulating and systematic review of the framework for criminal enforcement of intellectual property rights. If counterfeiting constitutes an ever-growing international phenomenon with major economic and social repercussions, potentially affecting consumer safety and public health, the question of which are the appropriate instruments to enforce IP rights is a complex and sensitive one. Although criminal penalties can constitute strong and effective means of enforcement, serious doubts exist as to whether criminal sanctions are appropriate in every infringement situation. Drawing on legal, economic, historical and judicial perspectives, this book provides a differentiated sector-by-sector approach to the question of enforcement, and draws useful conclusions for future legislative initiatives at European, international and national levels. Offering a broad survey of the field, and a sound platform for further research, this legal and cross-disciplinary study by leading scholars will prove insightful for professors, researchers and students in intellectual property, criminal, competition, consumer protection and health law.

The first truly systematic analysis of the upsurge in criminal enforcement of intellectual property rights, this book offers a scholarly examination of the justifications for this approach, including claims regarding the involvement organized crime, heavy revenue losses, corruption, and safety risks. Legal, economic, prosecutorial, and historical perspectives are brought to bear on such issues as the comparative goals of criminal and intellectual property law, as well as the impact of criminalization on innovation, health, consumer protection, and global trade. -- Rochelle Dreyfuss, New York University, School of Law, US This useful collection will repay careful reading by those involved in IPR policy formulation as well as by all IPR scholars. -- Michael Blakeney, European Intellectual Property Review
