Bioproperty, Biomedicine And Deliberative Governance: Patents As Discourse On Life (Globalization And Law)

The focus of this book is on regulatory agencies, such as the European Patent Office and the World Trade Organisation, and their role and function in the regulation of the bioeconomy. The author argues that the administrative culture and underlying ethical visions that underpin questions of governance and legal reasoning in the legitimate decision making by these regulatory agencies have far reaching consequences in many fields such as biotechnological and biomedical research.
