"Democratizing" Globalization: Practicing the Policies of Cultural Inclusion

Authors

• Doris Estelle Long, The John Marshall Law School

Abstract

The article examines the evolving relationship between culture and intellectual property in the context of globalization, arguing that the current international harmonization process under the TRIPS Agreement is coercive and undemocratic, disproportionately favoring developed countries. It advocates for a more inclusive and balanced approach to harmonization that considers the diverse needs of developing countries and ensures equitable protection of intellectual property while preserving cultural and public domain interests.
