Intellectual property in the digital age : challenges for Asia / executive editors, Christopher Heath, Anselm Kamperman Sanders ; sponsored by the European Commission ; Instituto de Estudos Europeus de Macau.
By examining the status of information technologies in East Asia, and the pressure to grant a level of legal protection to intellectual property owners that is hardly compatible with the present level of economic development in the region, this book offers insights into how the Internet and other digital technologies can be regulated fairly.
