The term "intellectual property" was used for a long time in France
and Spain to refer to copyright and only copyright. The broader
definition that WIPO uses (which is inconsistent with that) is new.
I have asked people at universities to check past law school catalogs
to see when the term first appeared there. I have only got a few
responses, but all of them were in the 1980s. I would find it
interesting to get more responses.
