Abstract
Economic and ideological motives underpin differing positions on the protection of intellectual property, with the strongest divisions running between developed and less developed countries. Protection for intellectual property rests on international treaties and agreements, regional arrangements, bilateral agreements, and unilateral actions. In recent years, nations that have been notorioushavens for piracy have sought to bring their laws and enforcement more into line with international standards.
