TRIPS와 TRIPS-Plus, 그리고 규범충돌의 문제 - 국경조치를 중심으로 -

After the WTO/TRIPs Agreement got enforced in January 1st, 1995, the importance of Intellectual Property Rights(IPRs) in the field of international trade has rapidly been growing. In addition to more strong protection of IPRs, the developed countries, such as the United States and EU, have shifted international intellectual governance from TRIPS rules to new TRIPS-Plus norms by introducing Forum Shifting strategy, which bring more strong enforcement standards of intellectual property. In respect of TRIPS-Plus standards under various FTAs and ACTA, I examine the forum shifting strategy by developed countries, including the US and EU since the WTO/TRIPS regime successfully has operated. In Part II, I explore briefly the system of protection and enforcement of IPRs rules from TRIPS to FTA through ACTA having TRIPS-Plus standards. In Part III, I discuss about norms conflict problem between TRIPS and ACTA agreement. In addition, I search for any reasonable tools for conflict solution between different norms to a same subject matter under WTO and other international law. In Part IV, I suggest some alternatives of problems relating to laws and regulations of the TRIPS-plus standards under the ACTA and KORUS FTA in respect of border measures in Korea. In conclusion, after I examine some implications from the above several facts, I would like to suggest bringing of ADR system to avoid and resolve disputes relating to IPRs with regard to the utility of border measures under the forum shifting environment.
