This book analyses the theoretical and philosophical frames of new (biotic) property, and assesses how its altered metaphysics inscribes itself in the politics of genetic resources. It probes how rights get ‘framed’ within and by law, in the diverse yet closely interrelated aspects of social, cultural, and biological life. In particular, the book focuses on biocultural entitlements of farming and indigenous communities—people who are at a distance from the global networks of trade, politics, science, and technology. It explores the terms on which the interests of these indigenous communities are included and institutionalized as well as the degrees of exclusion and stratification that accompany them. It attempts to uncover the ‘cunning’ or duplicitous nature of these rights—the chasm between their intended benefits and their actual outcomes. 000048136 588__ $$aOnline resource 000048136 650_0 $$aIndigenous peoples$$xLegal status, laws, etc. 000048136 650_0 $$aBiotechnology. 000048136 650_0 $$aCultural property$$xProtection$$xLaw and legislation. 000048136 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000048136 650_0 $$aRight of property. 000048136 650_4 $$aGermplasm resources$$xLaw and legislation 000048136 650_4 $$aFarmers$$xLegal status, laws, etc. 000048136 85641 $$uhttps://doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199459766.001.0001$$yView eBook 000048136 903__ $$aOxford Academic 000048136 904__ $$aJournal article 000048136 980__ $$aOS
