Towards a European Unfair Competition Law

  • Categories: Law
  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2006

  • Publisher: BRILL

The main aim of this book is to discuss the state of unfair competition law in the European Union. In this respect, the various efforts that have been made in the past to come to harmonization of this area of law and the reasons that they were only partially successful are reviewed. In addition, the International and European regulations that refer to unfair competition, like, e.g., the Paris Convention, the TRIPs and the recent 2004 Unfair Commercial Practices Directive are discussed. Also an overview is given of the unfair competition laws in the United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands with respect to the 'problem-areas' of slavish imitation, misleading advertising, denigrating one's competitor, trade secrets and finally, misappropriation of valuable trade assets. Unfair competition law is traditionally considered part of intellectual property law. Not only the relation of unfair competition law to intellectual property laws are therefore part of the discussion but also the areas of consumer protection law (since unfair competition law is partly orientated towards consumer protection) and competition (as an economic concept) is the topic of thorough review.

Commentary on the First Epistle to the Corinthians

New in the Eerdmans Classic Biblical Commentaries collection This classic commentary by F. W. Grosheide on 1 Corinthians unpacks Paul’s letter to the first-century Corinthian church and applies his teachings to our own situation with vigor and understanding. The volume throughout exhibits Grosheide’s fairness to the views of others and his single-mindedness to expound fully the inspired text. Originally published in 1953 as part of the New International Commentary on the New Testament series, Grosheide’s Commentary on the First Epistle to the Corinthians in this new format will continue helping pastors, teachers, students, and other Bible readers grasp the aim and major themes of Paul’s first Corinthian letter.

European Porcelain in The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Porcelain imported from China was the most highly coveted new medium in sixteenth- and early seventeenth-­century Europe. Its pure white color, translucency, and durability, as well as the delicacy of decoration, were impossible to achieve in European earthenware and stoneware. In response, European ceramic factories set out to discover the process of producing porcelain in the Chinese manner, with significant artistic, technical, and commercial ramifications for Britain and the Continent. Indeed, not only artisans, but kings, noble patrons, and entrepreneurs all joined in the quest, hoping to gain both prestige and profit from the enterprises they established. This beautifully illustrated ...

Postcolonial Homiletics?

This book pursues the question of consciousness and thought through the art of preaching in a postcolonial era. Indeed, the past has bestowed upon the present the legacy of colonization and, in the South African context, apartheid. However, the endeavor of postcolonizing theology and homiletics is a contentious space that has not been settled. This book promotes a counterargument to the prevalent directions of decolonization by focusing on three themes of importance—consciousness, perspective, and identity—through the insights of primary postcolonial sources.
