SUMMARY:CEALS presents: Compulsory Patent Licensing in Japan
DESCRIPTION:In the United States\, the patent system is in the constitution and is grounded in the individual鈥檚 right to intellectual property. Specifically\, we have patents in order to鈥� promote the progress of science and useful arts\, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries.鈥� Was it a good idea that patent rights be exclusive? In Japan\, where the intellectual commitment to individual rights is not as strong as we have here\, patents exist to promote the development of industry. Intellectual Property is not referenced in the Constitution and there is nothing indicating that the inventor鈥檚 rights should be 鈥渆xclusive.鈥� In fact\, Japan enacted a compulsory licensing statute decades ago\, though it was not used much\, if at all\, until last year. Mr. Makman will discuss the case that arose last year and the policies and debate that surrounds compulsory patent licensing. \n聽 \nDavid Makman\nFounder\, Law Offices of David A.

SUMMARY:The Center for East Asian Legal Studies proudly presents: America鈥檚 Legal Gambit to Curb China鈥檚 Technological Rise
DESCRIPTION:e The Center for East Asian Legal Studies (CEALS) proudly presents: \n \n聽 \nAbstract: \nIn this talk\, I will pose the provocative question of whether America is now acting like China in its attempt to curb China鈥檚 technological rise. Amid the escalating Sino-U.S. tech war\, the United States has built an unprecedented legal machine aimed at curbing China鈥檚 technological advancements. From imposing stringent sanctions on Chinese tech giants to restricting China鈥檚 access to advanced semiconductor chips and equipment\, the U.S. government has intensified efforts to slow China鈥檚 progress in key sectors. In parallel\, it has heightened scrutiny over both inbound and outbound investments related to China\, passed a law that could lead to a nationwide ban on Tik Tok\, and imposed steep tariffs on Chinese high-tech goods such as electric vehicles\, batteries\, and solar panels. Meanwhile\, U.S. agencies have significantly ramped up enforcement against espionage activities\, disproportionately targeting ethnic Chinese scientists\, which has led to a talent exodus in recent years. Drawing from my newly released book\, High Wire: How China Regulates Big Tech and Governs Its Economy\, I will explore the striking parallels between the U.S. and China鈥檚 regulatory governance. Through a deep dive into the structure\, processes\, and outcomes of U.S. legal strategies\, I will unravel the dynamic complexities and unintended consequences of U.S. legal actions against China. \n聽 \nProfile: \nAngela Huyue Zhang is a Professor of Law at the USC Gould School of Law. Zhang has broad research interests in the areas of law and economics\, particularly in transnational legal issues bearing on businesses. Widely recognized as a leading authority on Chinese tech regulation\, she has written extensively on this topic. Her first book\, Chinese Antitrust Exceptionalism: How the Rise of China Challenges Global Regulation\, was named one of the Best Political Economy Books of the Year by ProMarket in 2021. Her second book\, High Wire: How China Regulates Big Tech and Governs Its Economy\, released in March 2024\, has been covered in The New York Times\, Bloomberg\, Wire China\, MIT Tech Review and many other international news outlets. Zhang is currently conducting research on the regulation of artificial intelligence\, with plans to teach and write on this topic in the coming years. Before joining USC Gould in 2024\, Zhang taught at the University of Hong Kong\, New York University School of Law\, and King鈥檚 College London. \n聽 \nLight lunch to be served\, RSVP here

SUMMARY:CEALS Presents: US-Japan Cooperation in Trade\, Energy\, and Environmental Protection and US-Indo Pacific Strategy
DESCRIPTION:聽 \nThis project explores the strengthening of US-Japan cooperation in Eurasia\, focusing on three key areas: trade and investment\, energy security\, and environmental protection. The project takes into account the growing geopolitical tensions in the post-COVID-19 world\, especially China鈥檚 increasing assertiveness through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the US-Indo Pacific Strategy. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted global supply chains\, exacerbated protectionist tendencies\, and shifted priorities in international trade. The election of Joe Biden in the US brought renewed focus on multilateralism\, environmental protection\, and free trade\, offering a window of opportunity for the US and Japan to assert their influence in shaping global governance frameworks\, particularly in Eurasia. President Trump supported the conceptualization of the US-Indo Pacific strategy during his first term. However\, his approach during his second term remains unclear.聽聽The Free and Open Indo-Pacific (FOIP) strategy\, led by Japan\, serves as a key vehicle for promoting a rules-based international order in the region. FOIP emphasizes the rule of law\, free navigation\, and open markets\, countering China鈥檚 BRI\, which has been criticized for creating economic dependencies in the region. US-Japan collaboration is critical in reinforcing the liberal international economic order\, which is facing challenges due to rising nationalism\, authoritarianism\, and the declining efficacy of multilateral institutions.聽This project assesses how the US and Japan can leverage their strategic positions to improve trade\, foster sustainable energy cooperation\, and lead global environmental initiatives. Japan\, a leader in renewable energy technologies\, along with the US\, which has shifted focus under the Biden administration toward clean energy and environmental restoration\, offers a counterbalance to China鈥檚 state-driven projects that often neglect sustainability. \n聽 \nPaolo Davide Farah is a Full Professor of Public Administration and Public Policy (with tenure) at West Virginia University\, Eberly College of Arts and Sciences\, John D. Rockefeller IV School of Policy and Politics\, having joined the faculty in 2014.聽聽 \nHe is Coordinator of the Eberly College Interdisciplinary Research Collaborative on Global Challenges and Local Responses Initiatives and Director of the Energy Justice and Just Transition Lab at Center for Resilient Communities (CRC).聽 He is also Founder\, President and Director of gLAWcal 鈥� Global Law Initiatives for Sustainable Development. \nProfessor Farah鈥檚 teaching and research focus on law\, public policy and public administration\, democratic context of public administration\, legal and political foundations\, international law\, climate change\, international trade\, business and human rights\, social justice\, sustainable development\, energy and environmental law and policy. He is an expert in the interaction among trade\, economic globalization and non-trade concerns\, such as sustainable development\, energy\, environment and human rights.聽 He has published more than 60 peer-reviewed and US law review articles or book chapters\, 9 books and 6 journal special issues published or forthcoming and 20 additional peer-reviewed publications in Italian\, French\, Spanish and Chinese including a book published by the Law Press China. \nProfessor Farah graduated with a Maitrise in International and European Law from Paris Ouest La Defense Nanterre University (France)\, LLM in European Legal Studies from the College of Europe in Bruges (Belgium) and a Dual PhD in international law from Aix-Marseille University (France) and University of Milan (Italy). \n聽 \nLight lunch and refreshments to be served. \nRSVP Here!
