The history of patent harmonization is a story of dynamic actors,
whose interactions with established structures shaped the patent
regime. From the inception of the trade regime to include
intellectual property (IP) rights to the present, this book
documents the role of different sets of actors - states,
transnational business corporations, or civil society groups - and
their influence on the structures - such as national and
international agreements, organizations, and private entities -
that have caused changes to healthcare and access to medication.
Presenting the debates over patents, trade, and the Agreement on
Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS
Agreement), as it galvanized non-state and nonbusiness actors, the
book highlights how an alternative framing and understanding of
pharmaceutical patent rights emerged: as a public issue, instead of
a trade or IP issue. The book thus offers an important analysis of
the legal and political dynamics through which the contest for
access to lifesaving medication has been, and will continue to be,
fought. In addition to academics working in the areas of
international law, development, and public health, this book will
also be of interest to policy makers, state actors, and others with
relevant concerns working in nongovernmental and international
organizations.
