Intellectual property is a branch of law where international harmonization has been progressing for a period of time through conventions such as the Paris Convention. This has led to increasingly more principles and rules becoming common across several, or even all intellectual property rights, including many provisions enacted at the European and international level. Harmonization continues apace (e.g. the Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights) and the European Union has increased regional harmonization through secondary level directives and regulations.
