To test this proposal, it presents an analysis of the horizontal and vertical level of harmonization of the average consumer. The horizontal part focuses on similar fictions in areas of law adjacent to European trademark law (and in economics), and the average consumer in unfair competition law. The vertical part focuses on European trademark law, represented mainly by EU trademark law, and the trademark laws of the UK, Sweden, Denmark and Norway. The book provides readers with a better understanding of key aspects of European trademark law (the average consumer applied as part of the likelihood of confusion standard) and combines relevant law and practices with theoretical content and other related areas of law (and economics). Accordingly, it is an asset for policymakers and practitioners, as well as general readers with an interest in intellectual property law and theory. 000923377 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 11, 2019). 000923377 650_0 $$aTrademarks$$xLaw and legislation$$zEuropean Union countries. 000923377 852__ $$bebk 000923377 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-26350-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000923377 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:923377$$pGLOBAL_SET 000923377 980__ $$aEBOOK 000923377 980__ $$aBIB 000923377 982__ $$aEbook 000923377 983__ $$aOnline 000923377 994__ $$a92$$bISE
