The crisis impact, per se, tested, in extremis, the medical systems and the political capacity to take swift decisions needed to protect the population. It is a general accepted thesis that the world will face a second wave of effects: economic and systemic. Regarding the last aspect, the current international system is constructed around many principles among them, relevant for our research are, global governance and national sovereignty. The manner in which the two concepts operate was tested during the pandemic. On one hand the international system of global governance failed to ensure a higher level of human security when facing a crisis. On the other hand, states were left to tackle the effects of the pandemic, more or less alone, as the entire international system was paralyzed. In this context state had to turn to classic concepts of national security, egocentric ...

They are targeted towards the EU priorities and national necessities, offering the chance for member states and partner states to adapt to the new challenges. The COVID 19 pandemic tested states, societies and economies, and pinpointed towards needs which previously occupied a less important role in EU funding. Moreover, European states needed tailor made solutions for the post-crisis context, which will help them recover fast from the domino effect of the pandemic. All these were gathered in the Recovery and Resilience Facility, which, based on national plans, offer funds for a rapid recovery and investments in key sectors. The mechanism revealed an entire philosophy in approaching resilience and recovery, as, even if states followed the same rules in developing the plan, they oriented funds for different investments, reforms or activities. The present...

When it comes to countries regions or places the task is even harder but not because of the number of players that present similar offers but because these identities are based on cultural aspects that reflect from inside out, meaning - they must represent the community but also mean something to the outside world. An important subject developed in the broad subject of Intellectual property is the protection of traditional knowledge, or how a local community or a country can protect cultural and spiritual aspects and the way they can promote it through intellectual property aspects such as trademarks, geographical indications, patents, copyright and related rights. But this protection can raise certain conflicts between countries, because cultural aspects cannot be confined to the limit of a border. This can lead to disputes that have nation...

Based on this data the research aims to identify trademark registration tendencies changes due to the process of Romania joining the EU. Beyond facts and figures there are the economic decisions of Romanian and foreign companies based on the joining process that we aim to analyze globally. This paper objective is to identify if there are any influences on the trademark registration process caused by Romania’s EU integration in 2007. The research will compare the number of trademark registrations before the year 2007, and after. Trough this we expect to measure the impact of the EU integration process over the trademark registration in Romania or at least the trends in registrations prior and after the integration. As a conclusion we identify some correlation between trademark registrations as a sign preceding trade volume, and the economic crisis.

The concept is as controversial as the concept of globalization; specialist either embraced or criticized it. But more and more countries hire specialist in order to shape a national brand, attractive for other individuals, residents in foreign countries. The concept is meant to create or emphasize national identity in a globalised world. But the national brand is not just a concept, some fliers and maybe a video or two. The national brand is influenced by the country’s economy, and the intellectual property rights made representative for that state. New patented inventions, new successful brands, the promotion of traditional knowledge can help enhance the international image of a nation. The paper explores the structure of the national brand meaning the elements that put together form the image of a nation and how intellectual property (IP) aspects can be found or not in these elements. The goal is t...

From all the IP rights we choose to present the case of trademarks and patents because they represent important assets for companies and sometimes they are subject of IP rights infringement. In the context of the development of the new means of communications and the new informational technologies companies faces new challenges in regards of IP rights protection. Piracy of products, technologies and trademarks is a highly profitable business undermining the rightful owners of Intellectual Property (IP) rights and thus it diminishes the benefits of innovation. The research explores the trends in IP protection at international level and generates some conclusions for innovation management purposes.
