Trade Rules, Intellectual Property, and the Right to Health [Abstract] 09/26/07
In perpetuating and exacerbating restricted access to essential medicines, current trade-related intellectual property rules on medicines may violate core human rights to health and medicines. In this light, there should be serious questions about their necessity, and their justification should be critically assessed from the perspective of human rights standards.
Author(s): Lisa Forman

Reconstructing Precaution, Deconstructing Misconceptions [Abstract] 09/26/07
