The author provides an overview of the development of intellectual property under Shariah principles in the Gulf States. She focuses on how the US and the EU have shaped the intellectual property regimes in the Gulf States, the WTO and WIPO in the pre-TRIPS era, and compliance with the minimum standards of the TRIPS Agreement. In addition, the impact of the TRIPS Plus standards and investorstate dispute settlement, as well as the implications for Gulf states of committing to further international investor agreements are examined. Innovative recommendations for an integrated approach to intellectual property law that incorporates the principles of Islamic commercial and financial law will be of interest to both academics and practitioners within and outside the region. 000048671 650_4 $$aGulf Studies. 000048671 650_4 $$aInternational Law. 000048671 650_4 $$aPolitics. 000048671 650_4 $$aIntellectual Property Law. 000048671 650_4 $$aIslamic Law. 000048671 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000048671 651_7 $$aGulf States. 000048671 830_0 $$aMiddle Eastern & islamic studies at Gerlach Press. 000048671 85641 $$uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=30558542$$yView eBook 000048671 904__ $$aBook 000048671 980__ $$aBIB
