Abstract: Geographical Indications (GIs) have signif-icantly spread out beyond its initial European bases. This led to reconsider and debate on the nature and legitimacy of GI concept, the place of origin-related quality, conditions for implementing a GI, and its social implications and impacts. From Mexican tradi-tional cheese GIs implementation case studies, we examine the link between qualification regimes, which hold justifications and claims about GIs, and the property regimes (as bundles of rights), that arise from a GI recognition and implementation. In a con-text of blurred definition of the GI concept (objec-tives, procedures), we show the stakes and impacts of different claims confrontation on the implementa-tion of a GI as a common pool resource: inclu-sion/exclusion of resources in the GI, property rights distribution and local development impacts.
