Intellectual Property Infringement and Organized Crime

Michael Blakeney 20 hours | 3 ECTS credits

 

In 2017 the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) estimate that the global impacts of intellectual property counterfeiting and piracy would reach $US4.2 trillion by 2022. The size of the trade in infringing products has inevitably attracted the attention of organised crime. The current global value of illicit trade and transnational criminal activities have been estimated at between 8% and 15% of global GDP, with the value of narcotics trafficking at US$ 750 billion and the sale of counterfeit goods at US$ 650 billion worldwide.
This course looks at the inter-relationship between organized crime and the trade in counterfeit and pirate products.

This course covers the following topics: 1. The metrics of the international trade in infringing goods and services; 2. Intellectual property crime and public order – organized crime and terrorism; 3. Policy responses to the involvement of organised criminals in intellectual property crime; 4. International legislation and intellectual property crime; 5. EU legislation and intellectual property crime- customs controls; 6. National confiscation legislation and intellectual property crime – USA, UK, Italy, France; 7. Case studies in intellectual property crime – medicines, food and agricultural chemicals; 8. Case studies in intellectual property crime – fashion products; 9. Case studies in intellectual property crime – digital products-music, movies and computer programs; 10. The social origins of intellectual property crime.
