Description:
With the pervasiveness of the information revolution, the preservation of intellectual property rights through patents, copyrights, and trademarks has become far more difficult. Knock-off imitations abound and outright piracy of everything from pharmaceuticals to music videos is rife, especially in the vibrant markets of developing countries.
Expand description
In this book, Michael Ryan explains the issues, politics, and diplomacy of balancing intellectual property rights with the public's right of access. He discusses the major negotiations to forge international policy and he analyzes the shaping context of global competition in pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals, film and music, publishing, information technology, and software. He explores the new "knowledge diplomacy" that will establish the rules governing the exploitation of innovation and expression in the 21st century.
