Intellectual property rights (IPR) of an individual is the right given to him over the creation of his mind. Although IPR has a long history, yet it acquired greater significance in the rapidly growing international trade, particularly after globalisation. The fierce competition in trade lured traders to access creative works and scientific knowledge for considerable economic import, resulting into piracy. As such, the present paper intends to examine the concept, history, practices and legal provisions of IPR in context of the new world economic order. It finds that the situation makes it necessary that the IPRs are properly recognized and managed in the country. National protection of IPRs is not adequate to safeguard these rights which can be easily pirated or copied by nationals of other countries and exploited in their own market or even in international market. Therefore international remedies for such infringement are necessary and the provisions of the Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) agreement are a step towards such international protection of IPRs besides protecting and enforcing IPRs at affordable cost. The corporate management must focus on integrating intellectual property into business strategy. Intellectual Property Rights must be consistent with human dignity and interest of the society and provisions of scientific progress. – Reproduced http://www.iipabiharbranch.org/upload/Complete%20BJPA%20Vol%20XVI%20No.%201%20-%202019.pdf
