Joo-Young Lee

A Human Rights Framework for Intellectual Property, Innovation and Access to Medicines (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This 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. The author 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.
