Abstract

The article discusses a lawsuit brought by Catalan architect Beth Galí against the state of Qatar over claims that the Ashgal Qatari-owned company counterfeited the Latina streetlight designed by Galí for the Spanish manufacturer Santa & Cole. The lamps from Ashgal were used on a 2006 scheme in Doha, Qatar. The author explores how intellectual property is treated in Western countries and in developing nations such as China and Qatar.
