摘要
因烟草平装措施构成对商标使用的限制,相关利益方对其提起WTO争端解决和国际投资仲裁。国际贸易法中,对商标注册的禁止妨碍条款不适用于商标使用,成员方不负有保护商标显著性和知名度的义务,公共健康目的足以支持平装措施对商标使用的妨碍。国际投资法中,平装措施基于公共健康目的且对投资者利益不具有实质性影响,在程序上具有非“任意性”,未违反投资者合理期待和损害东道国法律稳定性,因而不构成对商标的间接征收以及对公平公正待遇的违反。我国对于知识产权争端解决机制的多样化和不断上升的知识产权保护标准应该有所启示,以便在知识产权国际交往中维护自身利益。
As TPP measures constitute a restriction on the use of trademark,relevant rightholders have initiated dispute settlement proceeding at WTO and international investment arbitration.In international trade law,the prohibition clause on trademark registration does not apply to the use of trademark,WTO members do not have the obligation to protect the distinctiveness and popularity of trademark,and the pursuit of public health is sufficient to support the interference of TPP measures on the use of trademarks.In international investment law,TPP measures,based on public health and not“arbitrary”in procedure,neither have a substantial impact on the interests of investors nor violate the legitimate expectation of investors and impair the legal stability of the host country,thus they do not constitute indirect expropriation and violate the fair and equitable treatment.The diversi fication of intellectual property dispute settlement mechanisms and rising intellectual property protection standards can let us know how to safeguard our own interests in international intellectual property exchanges.
