When the oral history of a medicinal plant as a genetic resource is
used to develop a blockbuster drug, how is the contribution of
indigenous peoples recognized in research and commercialization?
What other ethical, legal, and policy issues come into play? Is it
accurate for countries to self-identify as users or providers of
genetic resources? This edited collection, which focuses on Canada,
is the result of research conducted in partnership with indigenous
peoples in that country, where melting permafrost and new sea lanes
have opened the region's biodiversity, underscoring Canada's status
as a user and provider of genetic resources and associated
indigenous knowledge. This work is an important resource for
scholars, corporations, indigenous peoples, policymakers, and
concerned citizens as Canada and other countries take on the
implementation of Access and Benefit Sharing policies over genetic
resources and associated indigenous knowledge. This book is also
available as Open Access.
