      abstract = {Whether geographical names or other denominations with a  geographical connotation can be Geographical Indications  (GIs) or Appellations of Origin (AOs) may be assessed  differently from country to country. For example, the fact  that some of these indications are protected as  intellectual property rights in some jurisdictions, whereas  in other jurisdictions they are considered as generic  indications for a certain kind of product, has generated  extensive debate for many years. This introductory section  will outline WIPO’s longstanding engagement with these  debates over several decades. More than a century ago,  discussions between governments concerning the protection  of GIs at the international level resulted in the  incorporation of a number of provisions on the subject into  the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial  Property and in the conclusion of the Madrid Agreement for  the Repression of False or Deceptive Indications of Source  on Goods.},
