This book offers empirical analyses of conflicts over the
ownership, control, and use of knowledge and information in developed and
developing countries.
Sebastian Haunss and Kenneth C. Shadlen, along
with a collection of eminent contributors, focus on how business organizations,
farmers, social movements, legal communities, state officials, transnational
enterprises, and international organizations shape IP policies in areas such as
health, information-communication technologies, indigenous knowledge, genetic
resources, and many others. The innovative and original chapters examine
conflicts over the rules governing various dimensions of IP, including patents,
copyrights, traditional knowledge, and biosafety regulations.
Written from a political perspective, this book is
a must-read for political scientists, sociologists and anthropologists who
study IP and conflicts over property. It is also an essential read for
stakeholders in institutions, NGOs and industry interested in knowledge
governance and IP politics.
