This is the third volume in our Access to Knowledge series. India
is a $1 trillion economy which nevertheless struggles with a very
high poverty rate and very low access to knowledge for almost
seventy percent of its population which lives in rural areas. This
volume features four parts on current issues facing intellectual
property, development policy (especially rural development policy)
and associated innovation, from the Indian perspective. Each
chapter is authored by scholars taking an interdisciplinary
approach and affiliated to Indian or American universities and
Indian think-tanks. Each examines a policy area that significantly
impacts access to knowledge. These include information and
communications technology for development; the Indian digital
divide; networking rural areas; copyright and comparative business
models in music; free and open source software; patent reform and
access to medicines; the role of the Indian government in promoting
access to knowledge internationally and domestically.
