Abstract

The modernization of Taiwan’s intellectual property (IP) laws has been most marked in the last 10 to 15 years.] During that period, Taiwan also responded to U.S. Section 301 pressure by enacting and enforcing the Fair Trade Act of 1991, a general competition law. The issue of the interface between IP and antitrust law has gradually gained sigdcance in the last couple of years. To some extent, as its development in Taiwan testifies, competition law has circumscribed the scope of IP laws and inacted a spd-over effect on the IP laws. The ramification of competition law in Taiwan with regard to the interaction with IP laws has, thus far, resulted in an accumulated body of experience whch, gven the interface role that Taiwan is playing in many industries, could perhaps be of use for countries at an equivalent level of development or facing a simdar situation
