THE LAST BREAKFAST WITH AUNT JEMIMA AND ITS IMPACT ON TRADEMARK THEORY |
45 Columbia Journal of Law & the Arts 231 (Winter, 2022) |
The generally-accepted law and economics theory of trademarks fails to explain why a brand owner would ever walk away from a trademark that generates financially lucrative returns.

Instead, for those... |
