Description
Geographical Indications and Traditional Knowledge examines the emerging role of geographical indications (GIs) in protecting traditional knowledge-based resources. As developing countries, indigenous peoples, and local communities look for ways to protect and promote their traditional knowledge and economic development, GIs have gained significant attention as a tool to safeguard traditional knowledge while stimulating trade.
This book critically explores the potential of GIs as models for protecting traditional knowledge within national and international intellectual property frameworks. Through a comprehensive analysis of the reception of GIs from developing countries and various international legal and non-legal regimes (including the World Trade Organization, World Intellectual Property Organization, the Convention on Biological Diversity, and the Food and Agricultural Organization), the book assesses the role GIs can play in protecting traditional knowledge and fostering development in the context of changing international intellectual property laws.
Teshager W. Dagne advocates for a balanced approach to implementing global intellectual property rights that ensures developing countries can effectively protect their traditional knowledge-based products. The book offers a thoughtful exploration of the intersection of intellectual property, global governance, and development.
This book will be a valuable resource for scholars, students, and practitioners of intellectual property law, public international law, and those interested in the intersection of traditional knowledge and global governance.
