Manuel Ruiz Muller

Genetic Resources as Natural Information (eBook, ePUB)

Implications for the Convention on Biological Diversity and Nagoya Protocol

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Through a legal analysis that also incorporates historic, economic and sociological perspectives, the book argues that genetic resources are not tangible resources but information. It shows that the existing preference for bilateralism and contracts reflects resistance on the part of many of the stakeholders involved in the Convention on Biological Diversity process to recognize them as such.
