Comment analyser un projet à caractère touristique ? est-il écologiquement soutenable ? socialement viable ? économiquement durable ? À quelles conditions l'écotourisme peut-il créer une richesse collective, une plus-value sociale ?Pour réfléchir à ces questions, nous avons privilégié : des trajectoires plurielles, en provenance de la France, des Caraïbes, de l'Australie, du Costa Rica, du Nunavut et du Québec, tantôt sous l'angle économique, social ou culturel, tantôt sous l'angle de l'écotouriste, de l'opérateur, du parc ou de la communauté ou encore sous celui de la forêt, de la terre ou de

The impact of intellectual property rights on the rights of local communities, consumers and the environment has become a major source of controversy. This is especially so after the TRIPS agreement in the WTO facilitated the worldwide patenting of life forms and biological materials, which has given rise to public concerns over the environment, food security, farmers' livelihoods and the rights of indigenous peoples over their knowledge and resources. At the heart of the debate is the increasing misappropriation of traditional knowledge by corporations that are now patenting human genes, plants and other biological materials, many of which exist in nature or have been used for generations by farmers and indigenous peoples. In this book, Martin Khor examines the 'biopiracy' phenomenon, its links to the TRIPS agreement, and the effects on biodiversity, community rights, sustainable development and technology transfer. In particular, he deals with these questions: * What are the implications of TRIPS for respecting traditional knowledge and the rights of local communities? * What tensions exist between the approaches and provisions of TRIPS and the Convention on Biological Diversity? * Should life forms be granted the status of intellectual property, and to what extent has TRIPS made patentability of biological materials mandatory? * Will TRIPS endanger the transfer of technologies required by developing countries for their sustainable development? * What are the options for resolving these problems and what is the way forward for each issue? This book provides a useful summary and analysis of the key aspects in this complex and controversial subject, and just as importantly, it describes the processes and debates now taking place in the WTO and other fora, and gives suggestions on how to move ahead on the variuos issues.
