Recenzje

The work represents a substantial contribution…the substantive research is novel and sheds valuable light on the operation of geographical indications (GIs) protection in India. The study represents a major and valuable contribution to the existing literature. The empirical analysis and descriptive statistics used in some chapters are particularly good" - Dev Saif Gangjee, Associate Professor, Intellectual Property Law, Faculty of Law, University of Oxford, UK
