TRIPS协定第22条是TRIPS协定中关于地理标志的基础性条款,TRIPS协定地理标志保护制度下唯一结案的“欧共体农产品、食品商标和地理标准保护案”也围绕该条展开,因此对该条的解读显得尤为重要。在此笔者在考察法条原文、法条修订过程、学者解读、案例实践的基础上,对TRIPS协定第22条进行逐款解读。 Article 22 of the TRIPS Agreement is the basic article on geographical indications in the TRIPS Agreement. The only case that has been closed down under the TRIPS Agreement on the Protection of Geographical Indications is also dealt with in the article on Protection of Agricultural Products, Foodmarks and Geographical Criteria. Interpretation of the article is particularly important. In this article, the article examines Article 22 of the TRIPS Agreement on a case-by-case basis on the basis of examining the original text of the law, the revision of the law, the interpretation of scholars and the case practice.
