Human Rights Framework for Intellectual Property, Innovation and Access to Medicines (Revised)

by Lee, Joo-Young
No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781472410610

This book examines the relationship between intellectual property in pharmaceuticals and access to medicines from a human rights perspective, with a view to contributing to the development of a human rights framework that can guide States in enacting and implementing intellectual property law and policy. The study primarily explores whether conflicts between patents and human rights in the context of access to medicines are inevitable, or whether patents can be made to serve human rights. What could be a normative framework that human rights might provide for patents and innovation? Joo-Young Lee argues that it is necessary to have a deepened understanding of each of the two sets of norms that govern this issue, that is, patent law and international human rights law. The chapters investigate the relevant dimensions of patent law, and analyse particular human rights bearing upon the issue of intellectual property and access to medicines. This study will be of great interest to academic specialists, practitioners or professionals in the fields of human rights, trade, and intellectual property, as well as policy makers, activists, and health professionals across the world working in intellectual property and human rights.

Inclusive Innovation in the Age of AI and Big Data
As artificial intelligence and big data analytics reshape economies and societies, the promise of innovation is increasingly shadowed by concerns over inclusion, equity, and global justice. This accessible, interdisciplinary volume brings together established and emerging voices from across the world to critically examine issues lying at the intersection of innovation, intellectual property, and inequality in the age of artificial intelligence and big data. <p/>Featuring empirical studies, legal analyses, policy critiques, interdisciplinary perspectives, and global insights, <em>Inclusive Innovation in the Age of AI and Big Data</em> underscores the tremendous impact gender, race, and other socioeconomic factors have on innovation and intellectual property ecosystems. This volume also explores structural barriers in these ecosystems, diversity initiatives in the patent area, metrics for measuring inclusivity and diversity in innovation, changes brought about by artificial intelligence and big data, and the evolution of the global innovation and intellectual property systems. <p/>In an era marked by rapid technological change, extraordinary opportunities, and deepening inequality, this volume offers carefully designed reform strategies and policy recommendations to make innovation and intellectual property ecosystems more equitable, effective, and socially responsive. <p/>This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license. It is free to read on the Oxford Academic platform and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.
