From the inception of the trade regime to include intellectual property (IP) rights to the present, this book documents the role of different sets of actors - states, transnational business corporations, or civil society groups - and their influence on the structures - such as national and international agreements, organizations, and private entities - that have caused changes to healthcare and access to medication. Presenting the debates over patents, trade, and the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement), as it galvanized non-state and nonbusiness actors, the book highlights how an alternative framing and understanding of pharmaceutical patent rights emerged: as a public issue, instead of a trade or IP issue. The book thus offers an important analysis of the legal and political dynamics through which the contest for access to lifesaving medication has been, and will continue to be, fought. In addition to academics working in the areas of international law, development, and public health, this book will also be of interest to policy makers, state actors, and others with relevant concerns working in nongovernmental and international organizations. 000045058 650_0 $$aLaw$$xMedical Law & Legislation 000045058 650_0 $$aMedical$$xHealth Policy. 000045058 650_0 $$aLaw$$xIntellectual Property$$xPatents. 000045058 7102_ $$aTaylor & Francis Group 000045058 7972_ $$aProQuest (Firm) 000045058 830_0 $$aLaw, Development and Globalization Ser. 000045058 85640 $$uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=6676849$$zView this Ebook 000045058 904__ $$aBook 000045058 942__ $$2ddc$$cEBOOK 000045058 980__ $$aBIB 000045058 980__ $$aOS
