Abstract

Investment includes tangible and intangible assets. Intangible assets are often connected with intellectual property which leads to intangible results. The lack of “visibility” in intangible assets makes them difficult to measure. Current international regulations have not also explicitly provided room for enforcement regarding intellectual property rights in terms of foreign investment. Therefore, an emergence of cases is observed in investment disputes within the field of intellectual property rights through the Investor–State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) mechanism. In this research, we discuss cases of foreign investment disputes in such a field. From these cases, we find the factors that determine the occurrence of foreign investment disputes in the field of intellectual property rights. The ISDS mechanism can be used to resolve foreign investment disputes in the field of intellectual property. Furthermore, this research discusses the perspective of Indonesian law regarding foreign investment disputes in the mentioned field by using the ISDS mechanism. Qualitative methods and secondary data analysis are also used. The research aims to discover and identify foreign investment disputes in the field of intellectual property rights.

Bahasa Abstract

Investasi tidak hanya menyangkut aset yang berwujud tetapi juga mencakup aset tidak berwujud. Aset tidak berwujud sering dihubungkan dengan kekayaan intelektual, yang menghasilkan hasil yang tidak berwujud. Kurangnya ‘visibilitas’ dalam aset tidak berwujud membuat aset ini sulit untuk diukur dan peraturan internasional saat ini belum secara langsung mengatur mengenai hak kekayaan intelektual dalam hal investasi asing. Oleh karena itu, muncul kasus dalam sengketa investasi di bidang hak kekayaan intelektual melalui mekanisme Investor-State Dispute Settlement/ Penyelesaian Perselisihan Investor-Negara (ISDS). Pada penelitian ini, akan dibahas mengenai kasus-kasus sengketa penanaman modal asing dalam bidang hak kekayaan intelektual. Dari kasus-kasus ini, kita akan menemukan bahwa adanya faktor-faktor yang menetukan terjadinya sengketa penanaman modal asing dalam bidang hak kekayaan intelektual dan mekanisme ISDS dapat menjadi cara untuk menyelesaikan sengketa investasi asing di bidang hak kekayaan intelektual. Selanjutnya, penelitian ini akan membahas perspektif hukum Indonesia tentang sengketa investasi asing di bidang hak kekayaan intelektual menggunakan mekanisme ISDS. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dan analisis data sekunder. Pentingnya penelitian ini adalah untuk menemukan dan mengidentifikasi sengketa investasi asing di bidang hak kekayaan intelektual.
