Legal Protection of Genetic Resources and Traditional Knowledge from a Social Network Perspective
Routledge (Verlag)
9781041124887 (ISBN)
This book argues that traditional legal approaches (both international and national) alone are no longer sufficient and proposes a network-focused enforcement and compensation mechanism that uses social network analysis to examine the flow of genetic materials and TK through national and global supply chains. This approach is applied to 30 real-world biopiracy case studies across diverse regions, including Asia, Latin America, and Africa, to identify legal blind spots and power asymmetries. The book explains how predicting central nodes within supply chains where biopiracy and misappropriation are most likely to occur can lead to better enforcement and compensation outcomes. It then concludes with policy recommendations and suggestions to design more robust protection mechanisms for genetic resources and the associated TK.
This book will interest scholars of intellectual property and biotechnology law, as well as scholars of indigenous studies. Policymakers, indigenous activists, and social scientists who are interested in the broader applications of social network analysis will also find this of note.
