There is actually international law about intellectual property. Most countries (but not all) are parties to the Berne Convention and the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (and some other less important treaties too). These treaties do two main things. 1. They establish minimum levels of protection for various kinds of copyright. For example, they set minimum lengths for copyright protection. 2. They make counties treat foreign inventors, writers, companies, etc equally to their own citizens when it comes to intellectual property. You have to provide the same level of protection to a logo, book, invention, etc whether it comes from your own country or another one To be clear, there is still a lot of wiggle room given to counties to decide their own laws. And for patents, you have to get them registered in every country separately and different counties have different rules about what you can patent
