Abstract:
|
"When starting to work on intellectual property rights I have never been thinking to question the basic structures. Even more. Taking the intellectual property rights 'as such' I rather thought on its gradual implementation to other new and various dimensions of social relationships, like for example the whole breeding industry (plants and animals). Studying closer the going on development in this scope I started to realize that we have to do not with only wider implementation of intellectual property rights but something that could be named 'expansion'. The word 'expansion' has not a positive connotation and indicates that the direction intellectual property rights are developing is questionable. With this tough observation I have raised a few puzzling questions."
