Abstract

Breaking the intellectual property rights (IPR) has huge effects on the free movement of merchandise and of the occupying degree of work places, affecting both economic development and consumers’ health, and the rightful trademark owners and the companies which legally exploit them are the main “actors” to undertake the effects of this phenomenon which, in the last few years, has grown with more than 1000% according to data published by the World Trade Organization. In the last 20 years, the growth of cases of breaking the intellectual property rights has led to the development of various agreements at a global scale. The TRIPS agreement was created by World Intellectual Property Organization and World Trade Organization and it represents the main element of fighting against counterfeiting and piracy in all member states.
