Can TRIPS garner the necessary degree of legitimacy and public trust to deliver economic development? Can it become a key instrument for promoting international health and development? In response to these questions, the book proposes interpretive possibilities for the TRIPS’ text along with implementation strategies to avoid the threat of its irrelevancy due, amongst other things, to free trade agreements containing TRIPS-plus terms. The book discusses the impact of TRIPS from various perspectives, including those of developing countries. It will be of interest to informed citizens, members of NGOs and students and academics concerned with the debate about the impact of TRIPS on access to medicines at affordable prices, the protection of traditional knowledge, and the alleged neo-colonial effect of net revenue outflows from developing nations to developed nations for copyright and patent royalties. 000025768 63000 $$aAgreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. 000025768 63006 $$aAccord sur les aspects des droits de propriété intellectuelle qui touchent au commerce$$d(1994) 000025768 650_0 $$aIntellectual property (International law)$$zDeveloping countries. 000025768 650_0 $$aForeign trade regulation. 000025768 650_0 $$aPropietat intel·lectual (Dret internacional) 000025768 650_0 $$aIntellectual property$$zDeveloping countries. 000025768 650_0 $$aCopyright$$zDeveloping countries. 000025768 650_0 $$aPatents$$zDeveloping countries. 000025768 650_6 $$aPropriété intellectuelle (Droit international) 000025768 650_6 $$aCommerce extérieur$$xRéglementation. 000025768 651_0 $$aDeveloping countries$$xCommerce$$xLaw and legislation. 000025768 7001_ $$aC.
