As the wave of globalization is getting bigger and bigger, national
economies also impact to each other more frequently. Thus, snowballing
international disputes are reported here and there in the international stage.
This is no exception in Northeast Asia. In fact, growing number of cross-border
conflicts have been observed in this region. It is mainly because Japan, Korea
and China have not only cooperative partnership but also competitive
relationship.
Troubles are widely found in both private and public sectors.
Especially, cases regarding the intellectual property rights are often being
heard recently. This is no wonder in a time when the significance of the
intangible assets is getting unprecedentedly highlighted as a key source of
national competitiveness.
For example, a company files a suit against its
rivals in neighboring countries in charge of severe copyright infringement. A
governmental agency is also embarrassed to catch its publications have been
openly used in another country without legitimate process of offer and
acceptance.
