dc.description.abstractShould ACTA be considered a genuine trade agreement or as an agreement on enforcement of intellectual property rights (IPR)? Policy laundering essentially means that once new provisions have been adopted as part of an international agreement, a government can then implement provisions at home using the agreement as reason for legislative changes. Concern has been voiced that the ACTA agreement could be biased towards the needs of the signatory countries. A correct assessment of how ACTA relates to TRIPS (Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) and how ACTA aims to change the status quo of current international IPR enforcement is essential.en
