What is international character of intellectual property?

In order to ease trade and knowledge sharing among different countries, many intellectual property laws are based on the same general ideas. The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works have led to standardization of many laws, and advanced international parity. Berne is an excellent example. Prior to Berne, a work was only protected in its country of origin: a book published in France could be freely copied in England, and vice versa. Berne ensured as many countries as possible had similar copyright laws (no formalities, minimum of life + 50) and required the recognition of the rights of other signatories. The World Trade Organization (WTO) also requires its members to adhere to many of Berne's conditions through the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. The 1996 World Intellectual Property Organization Copyright Treaty further standardized international copyright issues by addressing contemporary technology, most notably the internet.

What are the objectives of TRIPS?

The World Trade Organization's Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) designated minimum protection requirements for various types of intellectual property, the majority of which are based on the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works and the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property.The goal of TRIPS was to ease international trade as the economy became increasingly knowledge-based. As WTO states......as intellectual property became more important in trade, these differences [in protection and enforcement] became a source of tension in international economic relations. New internationally-agreed trade rules for intellectual property rights were seen as a way to introduce more order and predictability, and for disputes to be settled more systematically.
