However, the two-edged nature of the word recalls that some forms of transmitting traditional knowledge (TK) and making it available to the public can be seen as a betrayal or a violation of customary laws, which causes offence or gravely damages a community. Jefferson's characterization of knowledge, establishing it as the iconic non-rivalrous public good – “he who receives an idea from me … as he who lights a taper at mine, receives light without darkening me” – may not convince those communities who fear that careless acts by others to gain illumination from TK may in fact diminish, or extinguish, the original flame, and darken their communities' future. Many local and indigenous communities are concerned that growing global interest in their TK and traditional cultural expressions is not matched by respect for the customs, laws and beliefs that identify and sustain their communities and that shape the very heritage that appeals to external consumers. 000048876 650_0 $$aJurisprudence. 000048876 650_0 $$aTraditional knowledge. 000048876 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000048876 650_0 $$aPatents. 000048876 7001_ $$aTaubman, Antony,$$eauthor. 000048876 77308 $$iInternational Public Goods and Transfer of Technology Under a Globalized Intellectual Property Regime$$aEdited by Keith E.
