الملخص

Given the complexity and diversity of legal systems, national legislation helps to regulate the rights of artists and inventors and ensure the protection of their intellectual property rights. The purpose of this study is to compare and contrast the intellectual property protection laws of Iraq and Jordan, determine how well they align with international norms, and point out any legislative gaps that might compromise the efficacy of intellectual property protection in both nations. Using a descriptive analytical methodology, the study critically examined the laws and legal frameworks governing intellectual property rights in Jordan and Iraq and made analytical comparisons between the two nations' legal systems. Although there are certain discrepancies in legislative texts and regulatory structures that could impact the effectiveness of law implementation, the research identified significant similarities between the fundamental ideas regulating intellectual property protection in Iraq and Jordan. In order to improve the degree of intellectual property protection, the study also showed that both systems must improve their conformance with international standards and offer legislative remedies to current theoretical and practical problems. In order to improve intellectual property protection, national laws must converge with worldwide standards. This can be achieved by revising legislative frameworks and creating legal policies that reflect trends around the world.
