Based on capitalism and socialist measures, Taiwan not only achieved better results than Mainland China during the 1949-91 period, but also better results than any other country in the world in promoting economic growth. A lack of market was the main disadvantage of Mainland China during this period of time. However, its successful pro-market reforms and unsuccessful reforms in Taiwan (based on privatization), reversed the tide. During the last quarter of the century, Mainland China has more efficient economic system than Taiwan. As a result, Mainland China became the world’s leading economic power in 2014 and it continues to have higher rates of growth than Taiwan.

The Right

In Michael Jeffery Jordan v Chinese Trademark Review and Adjudication Board, the Supreme People's Court (SPC) set a precedent for foreign companies and celebrities enforcing their rights of publicity against malicious trademark registration in China. This article introduces the legal grounds of the SPC's deliberations on Jordan's claims and responds to the critiques of most Chinese commentators in the field of civil law. Deeply influenced by German law, mainland China's legal system strictly distinguishes between personality rights and property rights. Comparative analysis with the US, Germany, Japan, and Hong Kong indicates that different legal civilizations have developed different approaches to position the right of publicity logically in their legal systems. The Jordan decision indicates that the ‘right of the name’ is a prior right provided in Article 32 of the Trademark Law of the PRC. This article contends that the ‘right of the name’ as provided in the Chinese Anti-Unfair Competition Law differs from the ‘right of the name’ articulated in Article 110 of the General Principles of Civil Law (2017). The former concerns the commercial interest and property aspects of a celebrity's name, which is fairly similar to the right of publicity, while the latter regards the personality right. The further development of the right of publicity protection relies in mainland China on a consistent judicial practice.
