Professor Geist’s weekly Toronto Star Law Bytes column (Toronto Star version, HTML backup article, homepage version) focuses on the World Intellectual Property Organization’s Development Agenda. It notes that years of international agreements have failed to balance the interests of the developed and developing worlds and have predictably led to annual outflows of billions of dollars from the developing world to the developed world. The introduction of a development agenda represents the best opportunity to reshape global intellectual property law in a manner that benefits both the developed and developing world.
