Abstract
Since China’s accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001, the country’s laws concerning intellectual property rights have had to come in line with international standards. Similar to Western countries, the various types of IP rights are defined in the Chinese Patent Law, the Trademark Law, the Copyright Law, and the Law on Unfair Competition. Further regulations and interpretations issued by the Supreme Court aim at clarifying certain questions such as IP rights infringements on the internet.
