Download or read book Geographical Indications of Indian Handlooms written by Nidhi Buch and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-12-31 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive analysis of Geographical Indications (GI) in the Indian context with particular reference to the handloom sector. It discusses themes such as the rationale of GI as IP (intellectual property); the domestic position on GIs; GI protection under various international instruments; handlooms from Gujarat and their GI journey; the efficacy of GIs; and GI structure for handlooms. The volume fills the gap between law and policies and recommends the implementation of an efficient legal system. It highlights the status of Indian handlooms, a sector that represents the country’s cultural heritage and supports a range of livelihoods. We examine India’s GI protection system with its diverse cultures and explore how GI can help recognize, support and promote these products to bring socio-economic benefits. The work documents policy measures undertaken for the revival, restructuring and promotion of Indian handlooms and handicrafts, and will serve as an important intervention in Indian law on GI. An investigative study that evaluates the current law and policy on GI protection through detailed case studies and empirical research on select Indian handlooms, this book will be useful to scholars and researchers of geography, economics, development studies, sociology, law and public policy. It will also interest policymakers, legal practitioners, textile and handloom professionals, design and business administration institutes, media, arts and crafts museums and civil society organizations working on handlooms or in intellectual property.
Book Synopsis Regional Products and Rural Livelihoods by : N. Lalitha
Download or read book Regional Products and Rural Livelihoods written by N. Lalitha and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-04 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the realm of trade, there exists a long tradition of labelling products with the emphasis on their place of origin to convey their quality. These products with Geographical Indications (GIs) tag, in the parlance of intellectual property rights, indicate the link between the geographic location and the product and represent the collective rights of the territory-specific communities that are engaged in the production of that commodity. With its entry into the World Trade Organization, India has implemented GI within a legal framework. Through select case studies of products like textiles and crafts in South India, Regional Products and Rural Livelihoods looks at the ramifications of GI implementation at macro and micro levels. It explores the involvement of stakeholders with respect to the reputation of a place/community and the institutional challenges that emerge in the process of GI implementation. This volume highlights the need for collective action by stakeholders to actualize economic gains through GI and analyses its possible outcomes, such as improved livelihoods for producers and authentic products for the consumers.
Book Synopsis Geographical Indication Protection in India by : Niharika Sahoo Bhattacharya
Download or read book Geographical Indication Protection in India written by Niharika Sahoo Bhattacharya and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a unique compilation of comprehensive works covering the potentials, challenges, and realities of geographical indications from an Indian perspective. The book encompasses critical studies on legal, regulatory, and institutional frameworks and debates surrounding geographical indications. The concept of geographical indication has not received paramount importance in India compared to the other forms of intellectual property rights like patents and trademarks, while GI is becoming critical in national and international discourses. It aims at presenting both national and international situations and discussions, which will appeal to readers worldwide. This book in its first part elaborately deals with the genesis of the GI Act, and then it goes on to analyze both substantive as well as procedural aspects of the registration under the Indian GI Act and tries to identify the discrepancy and gaps in the laws. Also, a comparative perspective has been built by analyzing the GI laws and regulations of some developed countries with that of India. The challenges in existing regulation for quality control and enforcement of GI products in the Indian GI Act have been dealt comprehensively by the authors which are critical in achieving the stated objectives of the Act. The book also focuses on the role of geographical indication in the socio-economic development of rural India. The authors have illustrated how the GI can act as an effective mechanism for employment generation and sustainable growth opportunities in different sectors like agriculture, food, and handicraft. The interaction of GI with traditional knowledge and biodiversity and their impact on society is also extensively covered. The book contains real-life case studies by the authors from different states of India highlighting the success stories and missed opportunities of different GIs and the way forward where the GI can function as an effective tool for the overall development of a country and promote international trade. The book will provide law students, scholars from legal and IP disciplines, legal practitioners, producers, and policymakers a factual and multidimensional insight into the GI system in India. This will further promote research in this area, particularly from an Asian perspective and enhance the real-life application of GI to varied products.

Book Synopsis Geographical Indications at the Crossroads of Trade, Development, and Culture by : Irene Calboli
Download or read book Geographical Indications at the Crossroads of Trade, Development, and Culture written by Irene Calboli and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, few topics have proven to be so controversial in international intellectual property as the protection of geographical indications (GIs). The adoption of TRIPS in 1994 did not resolve disagreements, and countries worldwide continue to quarrel today as to the nature, the scope, and the enforcement of GI protection nationally and internationally. Thus far, however, there is little literature addressing GI protection from the point of view of the Asia-Pacific region, even though countries in this region have actively discussed the topic and in several instances have promoted GIs as a mechanism to foster local development and safeguard local culture. This book, edited by renowned intellectual property scholars, fills the void in the current literature and offers a variety of contributions focusing on the framework and effects of GI protection in the Asia-Pacific region. The book is available as Open Access.

Download or read book Made Only in India written by Anu Kapur and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes Darjeeling tea, Pashmina shawl, Monsooned Malabar Arabica coffee and Chanderi saree special? Why is it that some goods derive their uniqueness through their inherent linkage to a place? In a pioneering study, this book explores this intriguing question in the Indian context across 199 registered goods with geographical indications, linked with their place of origin. It argues that the origin of these goods is attributed to a distinctive ecology that brews in a particular place. The attributes of their origin further endorse their unique geographical indications through legal channels. Drawing from a variety of disciplines including geography, history, sociology, handicrafts, paintings, and textiles, the author also examines the Geographical Indications Act of 1999, and shows how it has created a scope to identify, register and protect those goods, be they natural, agricultural, or manufactured. The work presents a new perspective on the indigenous diversities and offers an original understanding of the geography and history of India. Lucid and accessible, with several illustrative maps, this book will be useful to scholars and researchers in the social sciences, environmental studies, development studies, law, trade and history.

This book was released on 2023-05-29 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 Amazon Bestseller In Design & Fashion When the author started Rudraksh, a well known Indian multi-designer store in Pune, there was no one to guide her or say what mistakes to avoid, what leverage to use, how to build a fashion brand and its business, or how to use and deploy capital and resources. Rasika made quite a few (expensive) mistakes but fortunately has had more successes to build upon, with a tremendous amount of perseverance, passion, and commitment. In this book, she brings her learnings to readers to help their growth and interest in Indian fashion. Does the fashion supply chain understand interconnected nuances? Do clients appreciate creativity, or do they put a price which is their perception of a good price for a garment? What does a student learn at fashion school? How much does one have to unlearn? Does the designer ever lose the plot from the runway to the store? Will the stylist, the press, the client choose mindful style over fast fashion? These are some questions she explores. She looks at fashion from the perspective of a client first, who became the retail bridge, then a patron and finally an observer. Her chronicle and observations will leave you with questions of your own and if those questions already ever existed in your mind, then you may be able to find some answers, or your own epiphany even! About the Author Rasika Wakalkar, as a founder of Pune’s multi-designer store, Rudraksh has been acknowledged as a thought leader and taste maker in the Indian fashion space. She has been widely covered in press, with multiple recognitions and awards to her credit. Over the last 15 years, Rudraksh as a multi designer store in Pune has retailed more than 300 known and lesser-known Indian fashion labels and is known to pick designers before they go on to become well established names. Rasika’s work experience spans 23 years+ across leadership roles in strategy, marketing & brand positioning in the education and fashion space. Her journey in fashion exposed the many gaps in it and she wished to give back to the grassroots and her ecosystems. She found her purpose and started The Vishwas & Anuradha Memorial [TVAM] Foundation in the memory of her late parents in March 2019. The not-for-profit Foundation is committed to researching, celebrating, and informing the general public of the rich textile traditions of Deccan India, and Maharashtra in particular. Rasika has been very actively involved with Industry and Social Organisations like CII-Yi, Entrepreneurs Organisation (EO), and more, over the last 2 decades in various leadership roles. She has been an official CII-Yi delegate to the G20 YEA Summits in France and Mexico. She is the Cultural Ambassador for the Asia Society, an exclusive community comprising of people who are passionate and curious about the arts of the region and interested in getting more involved with the cultural ecosystem of South Asia. She is also the Founding Chapter Champion for Pune, for Ladies Who Lead, a Club of Women entrepreneurs, leaders and business owners across India.
