| Description: |
Global intellectual property in the form of patents and copyright has profound consequences for the ownership of knowledge and technologies in the 21st Century. This discusses the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) |
| Synopsis: |
Intellectual property rights such as patents can reduce access to knowledge in genetics, health, agriculture, education and information technology, particularly for people in developing countries. Global Intellectual Property Rights shows how the new global rules of intellectual property have been the product of the strategic behaviour of multinationals, rather than democratic dialogue. The final section of the book suggests strategies aimed at developing more flexible standard for poor countries, and for keeping knowledge in the intellectual commons. |
