The book outlines the systemic problems associated with the prevailing globalized patent regime and the regime’s inability to promote access to life-saving medication at affordable prices in SSA. It argues that for pharmaceutical patents to retain their relevance in SSA countries, human development concepts must be integrated into global patent law- and policy-making. An integrative approach implies developing additional public health and human development exceptions/limitations to the exercise of patent rights with the goal of scaling up access to medication that can treat epidemics in SSA. By drawing on multiple perspectives of laws, institutions, practices, and politics, the book suggests that SSA countries adopt an evidence-based approach to implementing global patent standards in domestic jurisdictions. This evidence-based approach would include mechanisms like local need assessments and the use of empirical data to shape domestic patent law-making | | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | | 关键词 | Patent Protection; Patent Regime; Pharmaceuticals; Public Health; Sub-Saharan Africa | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-32515-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-43929-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-32515-1 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013 |
