Synopsis

The newly adopted World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Development Agenda presents a real opportunity to revolutionize the international governance of intellectual property law and policy. The litmus test for its success, however, will be if and how the agenda is implemented in practice. This edited collection brings together a series of incisive essays written by leading thinkers from emerging economies, Canada, and elsewhere to develop concrete strategies for implementing the agenda.
The essays cover a range of fundamental issues surrounding the agenda and examine its recommendations from multidisciplinary and multi-regional perspectives. Several essays explore the role of WIPO and its member states in steering the direction of future reform as well as potential approaches to achieve this goal. Other contributions examine specific recommendations on WIPO's activities within the broader context of development.
This volume will be a useful source of reference for informed but non-expert readers, including government officials and delegates at international and "capital" levels, leaders of the international business community, individuals in inter- and non-governmental organizations, and scholars in the fields of law and international governance.
Co-published with the International Development Research Centre and the Centre for International Governance Innovation
