Reviewing the Quality of Indonesian Social Education in the Era of Globalization

Abstract

Patentability is an important legal concept in the field of industrial property, which requires providing legal and international protection for patents. Intellectual property is a crucial and effective domain that plays a vital role in the economic development of countries. The technological and economic advancements experienced by most advanced nations necessitate a focus on the field of patentability. Inventors are entitled to obtain patents for their intellectual, industrial, and technical creations. However, this right may be infringed upon by other parties belonging to different countries, leading to conflicts between the laws of nations. Consequently, determining which law should be applied to patents becomes essential. With the progress and development, the need for patents has increased, making them susceptible to exploitation, infringement, and misrepresentation. As a result, many countries have dedicated efforts at the domestic and international levels to protect patents by establishing protective regulations that specify the applicable law for patents through specific assignment rules. International agreements, starting with the Paris Convention of 1883, have provided a foundation for international patent protection. These agreements have established comprehensive international provisions and principles that determine the applicable law for patents. All these protective regulations are solutions to the conflicts of laws in the field of patents.
