Description: Title:The Protection of Biodiversity and Traditional Knowledge in International Law of Intellectual Property Author:Jonathan Curci Publisher:Cambridge University Press ISBN:0521199441 ISBN13: Date2010-01-18 Pages:360 Language:English Format: PDF Size:2.04 MB Description:The relationships between international intellectual property treaties, the United Nations international environmental treaties (first and foremost the Convention on Biological Diversity), the relevant customary norms and soft law form a complex network of obligations that sometimes conflict with each other. The first set of treaties creates private rights while the latter affirms the sovereignty rights of States over genetic resources and related knowledge and creates international regimes of exploitation of the same.
