Inside Story - Counterfeits: flattery or forgery?

We question the notion that imitation goods are the pariahs of industry that manufacturers say they are. Inside Story's Hazem Sika is joined by guests: Giovanni Broussard, from the UN Office on Drugs and Crime which produced the report on transnational orgsanised crime in the Asia-Pacific region; David Wall, a professor of criminology at Durham University. David also co-wrote the EU-funded report on counterfeit goods, which suggested there were actually some benefits to buying fake luxury items; and Athar Hussain, director of the Asia Research Centre at the London School of Economics.
