Certification Marks
Author: Jeffrey BelsonPublisher: Sweet & Maxwell
ISBN: 9780421758209
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
Certification of web sites plays an important role in Internet security. A certification mark is a guarantee that goods or services, in connection with which the mark is used, comply with certain standards. Certification marks are classed as a special category of trade mark. While they have existed under US and UK law, and the laws of many European and other countries, for almost 100 years, there is currently no publication focusing specifically on the subject. Certification Marks discusses the current state of law in this area, placing it in an historical and commercial context. Particular effort is made to examine several unresolved issues which look set to play important roles in the future, especially EU certification and harmonisation and electronic certification.
Products, Users, and Popular Luxury in Early Modern Greece
Author: Artemis YagouPublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040110665
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
This book analyses aspects of the material culture of early modern Greece from an object-based perspective, using surviving artefacts from that period as primary sources. A printed book, a wine jug, an ecclesiastical embroidery, and a pocket watch are used as entry points to examine the consumer practices of the emerging Greek bourgeoisie under Ottoman rule in the long eighteenth century. The acquisition and usage of novel products – especially imported ones – by Greeks was connected to personal expression, identity building, and self-determination in the context of the Enlightenment. The enjoyment of innovative artefacts opened new horizons to them and facilitated their individual and collective empowerment. The originality of the book lies in its eclectic and interdisciplinary approach towards early modern Greek material culture, an under-researched topic. The study is embedded within contemporary discourses on transnational trade, the materiality of everyday life, pleasurable consumption, and the negotiation of identities. This volume will appeal to students and scholars of early modern and modern Greek history, Ottoman history, European history, material culture, history of technology, museum studies, and cultural heritage studies, as well as museum professionals, collectors, and the wider educated public.

Certification and Collective Marks
Author: Jeffrey BelsonPublisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 178536880X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
Certification and Collective Marks is a thoroughly updated and augmented edition of Certification Marks, first published in 2002. This comprehensive study forms a wide-ranging inquiry, with comparisons of the certification and collective mark systems of the UK, EU and US, whilst also referring to other systems. In addition to the laws and policies impacting ownership and use of these marks, also addressed are their historical development, registration and protection, certifiers’ liability, legal and commercial significance, use in regulatory and technical standardization frameworks, and emergent sui generis forms of certification, namely ecolabels and electronic authentication marks in digital content. This publication is especially timely in light of the advent of the EU certification mark and the controversial EU proposals to extend the Geographical Indications system to include non-agri-food products.
