Description
This book examines the international agreements relevant to intellectual property rights (IPRs), specifically the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the World Trade Organization's TRIPS Agreement, and the Convention of the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV). It sets out to establish an equitable IPR regime for biodiversity taking into account ethical concerns over patenting life forms, environmental and social impacts, technology transfer, and the relation between traditional knowledge and IPRs. The book provides the first full-scale account of how to integrate the requirements of the CBD into the global IPR regime.
