International and European aspects of protection of industrial property
Píza, Jan ; Dobřichovský, Tomáš (advisor) ; Růžička, Michal (referee)
Resumé The field of legal protection of industrial property has gone through a turbulent period since the end of the 19th century, as it has had to react, not only to the fast development of international trade but also to the increasing importance of research and technological progress. This requested creation of international systems of protection for individual subjects of industrial property, as well as the conclusion of many multilateral international treaties, which aim to ensure minimal standards of protection and unify fundamental principles and substantive and procedural rules, has significantly helped to simplify the position of applicants seeking protection in more countries, as well as those responsible for overseeing these rights. This thesis aims to provide a complex view of the field of industrial property rights and their protection, which will also be reflected in the individual breakdown of the chapters. After the introductory explanation of the industrial property concept and the clarification of the importance of its legal regulation, an analysis of the historical context and development leading to the gradual internationalization of the field, follows. In the remaining chapters space has been reserved for the most important international treaties, whose complexly have regulated the...

Kučera, Matěj ; Růžička, Michal (advisor) ; Pítra, Vladimír (referee)
This paper compares legal systems of trademark law in Czech Republic and Peoples Republic of China with focus on trademark legislation. The goal of this thesis is to provide the reader with a view of Czech and Chinese mentality towards trademarks as it evolved in time. This historical comparison of trademark evolution should mainly serve as a guideline to understanding as to why each legal system chose such legislation even though both are part of the civil law system. Another goal is to present the reader to a complete view of Chinese trademark legislation with focus on those aspects that are the most different for Czech trademark legislation and also to present specifics of Chinese and Czech trademark legislation which would be hard to find in its counterpart. This thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter describes the basic concepts that are essential to this thesis, with focus on those, that are significant for the comparison of both legislations. Second chapter provides complete explanation of historical evolution of trademarks in both countries, with focus on historical evolution of trademarks in China. Third and longest chapter deals with the actual comparison of both legislations, with the main focus on Chinese legislation. Each subchapter starts with a description of a...

Resumé - Protection of Selected Industrial Property Rights and International Law Within the last approx. two hundred years, industrial production has made a huge progress and at the same time international trade has grown very significantly. The need of industrial property protection of a good quality at the international level led to conclusion of many multilateral international treaties mainly at the WIPO and also to the creation of international systems which ensure the needed level of industrial property protection and also facilitate international cooperation as well as the process of applying and administration of rights in several countries. At its very beginning, the thesis describes the industrial property in general and it deals with its definition, conception and specificity since it is essential for better understanding of the following chapters. In the next step, the thesis presents the cornerstones and the most important treaties of the industrial property field from the international perspective. These are the Paris Convention and the TRIPS Agreement - two treaties that even today keep their high significance. In this context, there is also a section concerning the essential international organization in this field - the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), but it also deals with...
