Le respect de la propriété intellectuelle d'autrui dans la vente internationale de marchandises : une approche de la Convention de Vienne coordonnée avec le droit de la propriété intellectuelle / The interference of third parties' intellectual property in the International Sale of Goods : a new approach of the Vienna Convention coordinated with intellectual property lawVerville, Sophie 29 May 2012 (has links)
L'article 42 de la Convention de Vienne impose au vendeur de livrer la marchandise libre de tout droit ou prétention de tiers fondé sur la propriété intellectuelle. Ses conditions d'entrée en jeu requièrent l'analyse de ce que chaque contractant connaissait ou ne pouvait ignorer au sujet de la propriété intellectuelle du tiers. Ce passage de la Convention connaît des interprétations variées. Afin de contribuer à une interprétation uniforme et plus prévisible de l'article, le projet s'attache à le replacer sur la trame plus générale du commerce international, où le droit de la propriété intellectuelle pose des obstacles aux mouvements transfrontaliers des marchandises. Il est d'abord comparé avec la théorie de l'épuisement des droits, puis mis en parallèle avec les moyens qui sont accessibles aux opérateurs commerciaux pour prévenir le problème d'interférence avec les droits intellectuels. À la lumière des modes limités de publicité des droits intellectuels et de la complexité des régimes conçus pour protéger les créations, il apparaît que ce domaine ne permet pas de prévenir efficacement les risques pouvant contrecarrer la vente. La solution proposée par la Convention de Vienne est enfin confrontée aux principes généraux dont elle s'inspire. Ceux-ci disposent de présomptions d'égalité et de compétence à l'égard des opérateurs. Elles ne peuvent être repoussées que par une démonstration de déséquilibre substantiel, ce qui provoque l'intensification des obligations d'information et de coopération sur les épaules du contractant qualifié au service de l'autre. Il ressort de la démarche que l'équilibre contractuel qui sous-tend l'article 42 se fonde sur une répartition particulière de la prévention. La spécificité des droits intellectuels le requiert. / Article 42 of the Vienna Sales Convention requires that the seller delivers goods which are free from any right or claim of a third party based on intellectual property. Its trigger mechanism, however, requires the analysis of what each party knew of said intellectual property or what they each could not have been unaware of. This passage has been the object of various interpretations. With the intention to contribute to a more uniform and predictable interpretation of article 42, the project seeks to replace the provision in the general context of international trade, where intellectual property law sets obstacles to cross-border movement of goods. Article 42 is first compared with the theory of exhaustion of rights and placed in parallel with the resources available to prevent the problem of interference with intellectual property rights. In light of the limited modes of publicity of intellectual rights and the complexity of the protections they involve, it appears that intellectual property law does not allow effective means of prevention.The solution proposed by the Vienna Convention is finally confronted with the general principles on which it is based. Those principles set forth presumptions of professional quality and equality between parties, which cannot be refuted unless a substantial imbalance can be established. In such cases, the balance can be restored by increased disclosure and cooperation obligations on the shoulders of the qualified party. The project concludes that article 42 is based on a particular distribution of expectations pertaining to the prevention of intellectual property problems. The specificity of intellectual property rights requires such stability.

Excavating the Digital Landscape : GIS analyses of social relations in central Sweden in the 1st millennium ADLöwenborg, Daniel January 2010 (has links)
This thesis presents a number of GIS based landscape analyses that together aim to explore aspects of the social development in Iron Age Västmanland, central Sweden. From a perspective where nature and culture are seen as integrated in the landscape, differences in the relations to the physical landscape are interpreted as reflecting social organisation. Thus, hydrological modelling of watersheds is used for understanding the development of territories and regions that are recognisable in the outlay of the medieval hundare districts. Statistical modelling of burial grounds together with variables describing their situation in the landscape is used to calculate an estimated chronology for sites that have not yet been excavated. This information is used to analyse differences in how the setting in the landscape can tell of different trends in claims to land and property rights. An extensive renegotiation of property rights is suggested to have taken place after climatic catastrophe in AD 536 and the years after. This is interpreted as having caused a substantial population decline in parts of Scandinavia. The social development after this includes an increasingly stratified social hierarchy in the Late Iron Age, which is reflected in the construction of grave monuments. New GIS methods for analysing how to interpret the perception of different locations of the landscape, in terms of local topography and soil are discussed in relation to this. How to make the best use of large datasets of archaeological information in combination with other sources of geographical information is a central theme. Geographically Weighted Regression is used to predicting the representativity of the registry of graves for the whole landscape. It is suggested that the increasing availability of archaeological information in digital format, together with new analytical techniques has the potential to introduce fruitful new research perspectives. This will make it increasingly rewarding to work with the large amount of data produced from rescue archaeology, and it is important that this information is managed in a structured manner. / Appendices see http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-111310

Soukromoprávní prosazování evroského soutěžního práva / Private Enforcement of EU Competition LawŠimeková, Zuzana January 2012 (has links)
1 Thesis Summary Private Enforcement of EU Competition Law Zuzana Šimeková 1. Starting points and goals of the thesis The main goal of my thesis is the application of the ever-evolving contemporary issues of private enforcement of the EU competition law, its developments in the legislative area and the decision- making practice of the European Commission and the Court of Justice of the European Union (the ECJ) to the pharmaceutical sector area. As regards the functioning of competition rules, the pharmaceutical sector found itself in the cross-hairs of the European Commission fairly recently. Its efforts resulted in the Pharmaceutical Sector Inquiry Final Report of 8 July 2009 (the Final Report). The primary subject-matter of my thesis is the assessment of the competition relationship dynamic between the originator and generic pharmaceutical companies, especially the degree by which the conduct by the originator pharmaceutical companies can delay market entry by the generic pharmaceutical companies and thereby negatively affect the consumers by (among other things) limiting availability of cheaper drugs. Despite the expectations of legal practitioners and academia, the European Commission did not rule in the Final Report whether the discovered conducts constitute violations of the EU competition law.

[en] THE 1988 CONSTITUTION AND THE DECREASING POWER OF THE STATE TO DISPOSSESS RURAL REAL PROPERTY TO AGRARIAN REFORM / [pt] A CONSTITUIÇÃO DE 1988 E A DIMINUIÇÃO DO PODER ESTATAL DE DESAPROPRIAR OS IMÓVEIS RURAIS PARA FINS DE REFORMA AGRÁRIASERGIO DE BRITTO CUNHA FILHO 13 October 2008 (has links)
[pt] A presente dissertação procura abordar o atual marco
regulatório das desapropriações por interesse social para
fins de reforma agrária, formado pela Constituição Federal
de 1988 e pelas normas que a regulamentaram, analisando o
seu processo de elaboração, o seu conteúdo e a sua
aplicação. As atuais normas reguladoras da desapropriação
por interesse social para fins de reforma agrária
apresentam-se como desdobramento de uma luta política
travada há tempos na sociedade brasileira, cujo desfecho
ainda se encontra distante. Em razão disto, este
conjunto normativo, além de contraditório e ambíguo, mostra-
se claramente desfavorável à efetivação da reforma agrária,
significando um retrocesso se comparado ao texto
constitucional anterior, uma vez que provocou uma redução
da capacidade expropriatória do Poder Executivo. Contudo,
apesar disto, a partir de 1995, em razão da intensa pressão
e da mobilização das organizações de trabalhadores rurais
em torno da reforma agrária, houve um aumento considerável
do número de desapropriações, de assentamentos e de
famílias assentadas pelo governo federal. A investigação
pretendida tem como principal referência teórica
no campo da Teoria do Direito a obra do dinamarquês Alf
Ross e busca contribuir para uma exata compreensão das
dificuldades atualmente existentes para a
realização de uma reforma agrária no Brasil e para um
aperfeiçoamento da legislação referente às desapropriações
para fins de reforma agrária. / [en] The present dissertation seeks to develop the actual
regulatory dispossession landmark made by social interests
with agrarian reform goal formed by the Federal
Constitution of 1988 and by the laws that regularized it,
analyzing its elaboration process, so much as its content
and application. The present dispossession regulatory laws
of the subject in analysis are the development of a
long political struggle in the Brazilian society, struggle
that shows no sign of ending in the near horizon. Thus,
this conjoint of laws are not only contradictory
and ambiguous but are also clearly contrary to the real
effectiveness of the agrarian reform. Hitherto, it has been
a retrocession to the agrarian reform if compared to the
previous Constitution once it has diminished the Executive`s
expropriatory capacity. Nevertheless, since 1995, because
of the intense pression and the rural workers mobilization
in favor of the agrarian reform there has been
an increasing number of dispossession and of family
settlements made by the federal government .In a nutshell,
the intended investigation has as its main
theorical reference in the general theory of law the Danish
author Alf Ross. It also seeks to contribute to an exact
comprehension of the nowadays barriers to the
agrarian reform realization in Brazil and to a related
legislation improvement.

L’usufruit atypique : contribution à la notion de démembrement de la propriété / The atypical usufruct : contribution to the notion of dismemberment of propertyFabre, Marie 20 November 2018 (has links)
Face aux limites d’un modèle social fondé sur la propriété absolue, l’usufruit, défini comme un droit de jouissance temporaire sur la chose d’autrui, apparaît aujourd’hui comme un outil fondamentalement utile. C’est aussi un droit en pleine expansion, comme en témoigne la diversification croissante de ses applications. Le quasi-usufruit, l’usufruit successif, l’usufruit temporaire, conditionnel, éventuel mais aussi l’usufruit des créances, des droits sociaux, des droits de propriété intellectuelle ou des universalités de fait sont autant d’exemples d’un usufruit que l’on peut dire « atypique » en raison de ses particularismes de régime. Ce sont ces mécanismes que la présente étude se propose d’étudier. Plus précisément, il s’agit de déterminer si les usufruits spéciaux peuvent ou non se concilier avec le modèle classique de l’usufruit, autrement dit, si une définition et un régime communs demeurent possibles. La démarche suppose alors de trancher la controverse toujours vive de la définition de l’usufruit en un démembrement de la propriété, et, ce faisant, d’apporter des solutions aux insuffisances bien connues des règles classiques de l’usufruit, telles que l’absence de relations personnelles entre les parties, et de manière générale, leur séparation trop stricte dans l’exercice de l’usufruit. De ce point de vue, la réflexion sur les usufruits atypiques crée l’occasion de repenser l’institution entière, et apparaît comme la source d’un potentiel renouvellement. / In the face of the limits of a social model organization based on absolute property rights, the right of usufruct (usufruit), which can be defined as a temporary right of use on another individual’s property, appears nowadays as fundamental tool. Usufruct is also a thriving tool, as evidenced by the growing diversification of its implementations. In this regard, the rise of atypical forms of usufruct – usufruct rights that differ substantially from the traditional form and regime of usufruct – is particularly striking. Quasi-usufruct (also known as irregular usufruct), successive usufruct, temporary, conditional or potential usufruct, as well as usufruct on debts, shares, and intellectual property rights are just examples of this booming phenomenon. They are the subject of this research. More precisely, this research seeks to determine whether such atypical rights of usufruct may be accommodated to the more traditional form of usufruct. In other word, the question is whether a characterization and legal regime common to both traditional and atypical forms of usufruct can be achieved. Therefore, this study aims at resolving past debates over the characterization of usufruct as a breaking-up of property rights and at providing remedies to the well-known insufficiencies in the traditional legal framework of usufruct rights, such as the absence of interpersonal relations between the parties, and more generally, their strict dissociation in the actual exercise of the usufruct right. In this perspective, this research on the atypical forms of usufruct is the occasion to fully rethink this legal institution, and opens the way for its prospective renewal.

Previous issue date: 2018-02-28 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The present work aims to analyze the participation of interest groups in the definition of the American foreign policy when defending their interests. Based on the two-level model proposed by Robert Putnam, it considers the impact of domestic actors in the decision-making process of the US foreign trade policy. From this perspective, we analyze how the pharmaceutical industry lobby is organized and its strategies to assert their interests and influence the formulation of the country's foreign policy, by using its financial resources and channels of influence with governamental institutions responsible for the definition of trade policy to pressure the US government in its international negotiations for regulations that would benefit the sector. Thus, the case study of the TRIPS Agreement (Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) negotiations under GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) demonstrates how the pharmaceutical lobby strategy proved to be efficient / A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar a participação de grupos de interesse na definição da política externa norte-americana ao defenderem seus interesses econômicos. Com base no modelo do jogo de dois níveis proposto por Robert Putnam, considera-se o impacto dos atores domésticos no processo de tomada de decisão na política externa comercial dos Estados Unidos. Sob tal perspectiva, analisaremos como lobby da indústria farmacêutica norte-americana se organizou e quais estratégias foram adotadas por eles para fazer valer os seus interesses e influenciar a formulação da política externa do país, utilizando seus recursos financeiros e influência política junto a instituições governamentais responsáveis pela definição da política comercial para pressionar o governo norte-americano em suas negociações internacionais por regulamentações que beneficiassem o setor. Assim, o estudo de caso das negociações do acordo TRIPS (Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) no âmbito do GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) demonstra como a estratégia do lobby farmacêutico se revelou eficiente

Ownership reform and corporate governance : The Slovak privatisation process in 1990-1996Olsson, Mikael January 1999 (has links)
Since 1989, there has been a period of rapid change of the economies of the former Eastern bloc. Within a few years, the majority of the formerly centrally administered economies had begun restructuring their economic systems, including the privatisation. of formerly state-owned enterprises. This process developed differently in different countries, depending among other things on their historical traditions and the momentum of their social, political and economic transformations. This doctoral dissertation examines the privatisation of large-scale industrial enterprises in Slovakia prior to 1997. In particular the thesis analyses the changing political and institutional framework governing the process and method of privatisation; and how the governance of firms was affected by the new markets and ownership- and control-structures that were established. Special attention is paid to the role played by investment funds andinvestment-companies established as a consequence of voucher privatisation. The research problem is approached both from an aggregate national level and from the enterprise level. The thesis includes a number of case studies of enterprises in Slovakia that underwent privatisation, and of investment funds that emerged to take part in the process. In addition, two panel-data sets were constructed for the sake of statistical analysis. The study points to the drastic changes in privatisation policy and its enactment, under different governments. It leads to the conclusion that privatisation is a highly political process, whose economic effects cannot be separated from its distributional effects. This politicised nature of ownership reform is shown to have some negative side-effects with regard to the development of well-functioning governance structures. It is, for example, pointed to that the capital market, as it developed during the period of study, was highly non-transparent,characterised by high transaction costs and insider-trading. The study also documents an increasingly concentrated ownership structure of the Slovak industry and relates it to the changes in privatisation policy. In the final analysis attention is drawn to a recurring theme in the study, namely the issues related to the relative stability and durability of the institutional set-up. In many cases an insecurity about "the rules of the game" led to short-term incentives and opportunism on behalf of the economic and political agents.

A Comparative Study of Rural Water Governance in the Limpopo BasinSithole, Pinimidzai January 2011 (has links)
In this thesis I examine and explore whether and if Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) inspired water reforms respond to- and address the diverse realities of women and men in informal (and formal) rural economies of Sekororo, South Africa and Ward 17 in Gwanda, Zimbabwe which are both in the Limpopo basin. South Africa and Zimbabwe, like other southern African countries, embarked on IWRMinspired water reforms, culminating in the promulgation of the National Water Acts in 1998, four years after the attainment of South Africaâs democracy in 1994 and 18 years after Zimbabwe attained independence in 1980. I argue that the adoption of IWRM, which emphasises second generation water issues such as demand management, water quality, environmental flow requirements etc, and not the development of water infrastructure, begs the question whether such reforms can make a meaningful contribution to the development agenda in countries where, during apartheid and colonialism, the water rights (among other rights) of millions of blacks were compromised because of unjust legislation and skewed underinvestment in water infrastructure

L'importazione del capitalismo / Importing CapitalismGABUSI, GIUSEPPE 18 June 2007 (has links)
Il successo delle riforme economiche cinesi negli anni '80 e negli anni '90 ha posto in discussione le politiche ufficiali di sviluppo (note come Washington consensus ) delle istituzioni multilaterali. Il consenso, ammettendo che le istituzioni sono importanti per la crescita, prescrive che i Paesi in via di sviluppo dovrebbero adottare governi che da un lato disciplinino un sistema di diritti di proprietà stabili e chiaramente definiti, e che dall'altro creino istituzioni che rafforzino i mercati: la buona governance in termini di liberalizzazione, privatizzazione delle proprietà statali e assenza di corruzione dovrebbe portare allo sviluppo economico. Nessuna di queste condizioni era presente in Cina: i diritti di proprietà apparivano essere né stabili né chiari, la corruzione era diffusa, e il governo era coinvolto in tutti i settori dell'economia. Questa ricerca utilizza i risultati della scuola della political economy per mettere in dubbio la validità dell'incompleta analisi del consenso e per dimostrare come le istituzioni cinesi abbiano appreso la lezione storica del capitalismo: i diritti di proprietà erano instabili, orizzontalmente indefiniti ma verticalmente definiti, e lo stato poté guidare la transizione capitalistica perché il sistema clientelare con il Partito attivo in qualità di political economy residual claimant era compatibile con i costi e i benefici connessi alla diffusione delle attività di mercato. / The success of China's economic reforms in the 1980s and in the 1990s has challenged the official development prescriptions known as Washington Consensus of multilateral institutions. By admitting that institutions matter for growth, the consensus suggests that developing countries should install a government which presides over a system of clear and stable property rights, and which does not interfere with markets but creates institutions that strengthen markets: good governance in terms of liberalisation, privatisation of State-owned assets and absence of corruption should result in economic development. None of these conditions were present in China: property rights appeared to be neither stable nor clear, corruption was widespread, and the government was involved in all sectors of the economy. This research draws on the findings of the political economy school to question the validity of the incomplete analysis of the consensus and to show how China's institutions learned the historical lesson of capitalism: property rights were unstable and horizontally unclear but vertically clear, and the state could guide the capitalist transition because the patron-client framework with the Party as the political economy residual claimant was compatible with the costs and benefits related to the rise of market activities.

Poverty reduction in rural areasof low-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa: Assessing the role of agricultural productivity and socio-economic environmentGODINHO BERTONCELLO, ALEXANDRE 21 February 2013 (has links)
Attualmente i prezzi agricoli sono evidenziate in combinazione con i presunti effetti collaterali, come la fame e la malnutrizione nell’Africa sub-sahariana (SSA), tuttavia, oggi, SSA ha circa 47,5 per cento della popolazione rurale in condizioni di povertà e tra il 1990 e il 2005 quando i prezzi dei prodotti alimentari erano stabile e con prezzi bassi l'estrema povertà rurale in SSA è stato circa 64,6 per cento.
Abbiamo ipotizzato che la malnutrizione o fame continuano in SSA perché li, la miseria persistono. La riduzione della povertà è l'unico modo per porre fine alla fame in Africa. Altresì per un paese agricolo in SSA – senza significative riserve di risorse minerarie – il modo migliore per risolvere la povertà è attraverso lo sviluppo agricolo.
Nel nostro campione, sono nove paesi in SSA - Burundi, Ghana, Malawi, Mozambico, Ruanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia e Zimbabwe – il cosiddetto SSA – 9.
Abbiamo utilizzato un modello ricorsivo nel periodo tra 1990 e il 2005. Come risultato si è visto che gli strumenti principali che hanno avuto forte relazione con la riduzione della povertà in SSA - 9 sono alcune implicazioni politiche come; il diritto di proprietà, l'accesso al sistema di crediti, il capitale umano e le infrastrutture. / Nowadays, agricultural prices are highlighted combined with, as alleged collateral effects, hunger and malnutrition in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). However, today, SSA has around 47,5 percent of rural population in extreme poverty and between 1990 and 2005 when the food prices was stable and with low prices, extreme poverty in SSA involved around 64.6 percent.
We assumed that the undernourishment or starvation continued in SSA because there the misery persisted. Poverty reduction is the only way to the end the hunger in Africa. Also, for an agricultural country in SSA – without significant mineral resources – the best way to solve the problem of poverty is through agricultural development.
Our sample are nine countries in SSA – Burundi, Ghana, Malawi, Mozambique, Rwanda, Uganda, United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe – the so called SSA – 9.
Thus, we built up a recursive model that answered how the agricultural gears in SSA – 9 were moving between 1990 and 2005, as well as assessed how the agriculture could reduce rural poverty.
As a result we saw that the main tools that had a strong relation with poverty reduction in SSA – 9 are some policies implications as; property rights, access to the credit system, human capital and infrastructure.
