Papers by Monica F Boța Moisin
Each community has a symbol, an autochthonous element that is not only specific for that community but encompasses traditional know-how, values of the community, and a set of unwritten lessons to be passed on to future generations.
Such elements should be secured through a mechanism that ensures authenticity, encourages creativity and innovation with respect of national identity, and translates economically the cultural value of tradition. As a legal concept, the country brand, as envisaged in this paper, is a sui-generis form of intellectual property protection which pertains to the field of cultural intellectual property. Following a similar logic to that of the right to self-determination, the country band as a mechanism of intellectual property protection, grants its holder, namely the people – a community, a cultural intellectual property right susceptible of monetization, as well as all prerogatives specific to intellectual property rights in general.
