It has become a commonplace that there has been an information
revolution, transforming both society and the economy. In 1995 the
Trade Related Intellectual Property (TRIPs) agreement aimed to
harmonise protection for property in knowledge throughout the
global system. This book considers the contemporary disputes about
the ownership of knowledge resources - as in the cases of
genetically modified foods, the music industry or the internet -
and the problematic nature of the TRIPs agreement. In this highly
topical book, Christopher May reveals that, because of such
problems, at present the balance in intellectual property rights
between public good and private reward is more often than not
weighted towards the latter.
