Regulating Style Intellectual Property Law and the Business of Fashion in Guatemala

Regulating Style Intellectual Property Law and the Business of Fashion in Guatemala
Regulating Style: Intellectual Property Law and the Business of Fashion in Guatemala By Kedron Thomas
2016 | 328 Pages | ISBN: 0520290968 | PDF | 4 MB
Fashion knockoffs are everywhere. Even in the out-of-the-way markets of highland Guatemala, fake branded clothes offer a cheap, stylish alternative for people who cannot afford high-priced originals. Fashion companies have taken notice, ensuring that international trade agreements include stronger intellectual property protections to prevent brand "piracy." In Regulating Style, Kedron Thomas approaches the fashion industry from the perspective of indigenous Maya people who make and sell knockoffs, asking why they copy and wear popular brands, how they interact with legal frameworks and state institutions that criminalize their livelihood, and what is really at stake for fashion companies in the global regulation of style.

Reforming UK Public Policy Through Elected Regional Government

Reforming UK Public Policy Through Elected Regional Government
Malcolm J. Prowle, "Reforming UK Public Policy Through Elected Regional Government"
English | ISBN: 1032063564 | 2022 | 286 pages | PDF | 5 MB
This book takes an in-depth look at the enormous challenges facing UK public services and considers what might be done to resolve them. The authors are confident that more of the same over-centralised approaches to public policy and so-called "levelling-up" policies will just not work. Instead, they argue for an application of radical measures, involving the creation of elected regional governments in England similar to the devolved arrangements in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Particular attention is also given to crucial elements of diversity in the Presbyterian story, with increasing numbers of African American, Latino/a, and Korean American Presbyterians-among others-in the twenty-first century. Overall, this book will be a bountiful resource to anyone curious about what it means to be Presbyterian in the multidimensional American context, as well as to anyone looking to understand this piece of the larger history of Christianity in the United States.
