-Kristin Dawkins
A short and sweet overview of biotechnology issues in the context of global trade agreements.
Dawkins focuses on the use of international agreements to enable crop dumping on Third World markets, throwing Third World farmers out of business. She discusses the place of intellectual property laws designed to help corporate biotech firms at the expense of indigenous agriculture. Dawkins describes corporate efforts to patent living beings and indigenous plants. And she explains how all of this relates to international wrangling over WTO policy.
Good quick look at the strange world of biotech law and their systematic manipulation in favor of Big Agri and Big Pharma.
