      abstract = {Intellectual Property and the Judiciary examines the role  of judges in the development, interpretation and  application of intellectual property (IP) law and norms. In  this regard, the authors engage in a comparative analysis  of various national, European and international court  systems while also exploring the competing and  complementary roles of legislators and executive actors.   Each chapter seeks to capture the comparative institutional  advantages of government bodies within existing legal  frameworks as well as offering a thorough examination of  both the common law and civil law traditions in the context  of judicial treatment of intellectual property. The result  is a series of proposals relating to the architecture of  judiciaries and the functional role of judges with the goal  of optimally positioning jurists to address complex issues  and advance intellectual property doctrine and policy.   Featuring high-level authors from both academia and  practice, the book will be of great interest to academic  researchers and practicing lawyers who have a focus on  intellectual property. It will be of particular value to  those who are engaged in the rapidly changing enforcement  environment of intellectual property rights.},
