How valid are these claims? Has the Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPs) Agreement ushered in a new, better era? Christopher May and Susan Sell trace the history of social conflict and political machinations surrounding the making of property out of knowledge. Ranging from ancient commerce in Greek poems to present-day controversies about online piracy and the availability of AIDS drugs in the poorest countries, May and Sell present intellectual property law as a continuing process in which particular conceptions of rights and duties are institutionalized; each settlement prompts new disputes, policy shifts, and new disputes again. They also examine the post-TRIPs era in the context of this process. Their account of two thousand years of technological advances, legal innovation, and philosophical arguments about the character of knowledge production suggests that the future of intellectual property law will be as contested as its past. 410 0$aIpolitics. 606 $aIntellectual property$xHistory 606 $aIntellectual property$xPolitical aspects 606 $aIntellectual property$xSocial aspects 615 0$aIntellectual property$xHistory. 615 0$aIntellectual property$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aIntellectual property$xSocial aspects. 676 $a346.04/8/09 700 $aMay$b Christopher$f1960-$0148086 702 $aSell$b Susan K. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815335203321 996 $aIntellectual property rights$93980305 997 $aUNINA
