Book Description
Vandana Shiva shows how intellectual protection is being transformed into corporate plunder, looking at how this Western-inspired and unprecedented widening of the concept does not in fact stimulate human creativity and the generation of knowledge This compelling book looks at what kinds of ideas, technologies, identification of genes, even manipulations of life forms can be owned and exploited for profit by giant corporations—an issue that lies at the heart of the so-called “knowledge economy.” Shiva shows how intellectual protection is being exploited by transnational corporations in order to increase their profits at the expense of the health of ordinary people—in particular the poor and farmers. This book highlights why popular resistance around the world is rising to the WTO that polices this new intellectual world order, and the pharmaceutical, biotech, and other corporations which dominate it—and the new technologies they are foisting upon humans.
Customer Reviews:
Alternative viewpoint deserving consideration.......2006-04-02
This book dares to ask why the developing world should agree to economic colonialization via an intellectual property regime they had no part in making. Highly recommended.
Bias, resentment, and confsion.......2005-05-27
Two quotes from the book: "Patents reflect human arrogance ..." and "Patents also reflect the arrogance of western civilization ...". These two sweeping generalities are unjustifiable and inexplicable yet they are the basis for the book. This book is of no use to anyone who understands intellectual property, patents, copyrights, trade secrets or other forms of original creation deserving of legal protection.

Book Description
Describes how private-sector management strategies can help governments obtain greater access to global resources, create more jobs, and provide better social services to their citizens.
Transitions to Competitive Government demonstrates how government can add value to a region, a nation, a state, its citizens, and their social values through speed, consensus, and performance. It does this in three stages. First, it shows competitive government to be entrepreneurial in seeking resources, jobs, and social services. Second, it provides case studies that offer examples of the challenges faced, strategies utilized, and implementing processes employed by various levels of government. Third, it explicates a global benchmarking process for evaluating government reforms and their progress in yielding increased competitiveness.

A first, only, analysis of the dynamics of economic force........1998-10-12
This book proposes that there are five sources of national power -- social, psychological, political, military and economic. Three of these instruments, the political, military and economic are most often translated into force. (E.g. Coercive diplomacy, military warfare, economic sanctions.) Nations have devoted great resources to the preparation for and study of political and military force. Nations (to include the United States) have devoted almost no energy or resources to the preparation for and study of the use of economic force. Such neglect has rendered our decision makers, defense and economic intellectuals dangerous in the employment of this instrument or for combatting a coercive economic threat. There is an urgent requirement that the U.S. decision making mechanisms, bureaucracy, and educational and training institutions be reorganized to focus on a more productive use of this coercive instrument. This book does not advocate a wider use of sanctions or other economic instruments, but does advocate a more selective, more proficient use of this power, and prescribes approaches to that end.
