Thesis (M.A.L.S.)--Dartmouth College, 2016.

Intellectual property is deeply embedded in our lives. It has an effect on everything from Internet memes to human rights. It affects the music that we listen to, the clothes that we wear, and the way that we watch movies. It influences the types of drugs that pharmaceutical companies manufacture, and the types of crops that farmers grow. It impacts economic development, free trade agreements, and the global distribution of wealth. This thesis applies Arjun Appadurai's framework for understanding globalization to the concept of intellectual property. In particular, it explores the disjunctures between the ideoscape and the technoscape of IP.

520 $a Intellectual property is deeply embedded in our lives. It has an effect on everything from Internet memes to human rights. It affects the music that we listen to, the clothes that we wear, and the way that we watch movies. It influences the types of drugs that pharmaceutical companies manufacture, and the types of crops that farmers grow. It impacts economic development, free trade agreements, and the global distribution of wealth. This thesis applies Arjun Appadurai's framework for understanding globalization to the concept of intellectual property. In particular, it explores the disjunctures between the ideoscape and the technoscape of IP.
520 $a The meaning of intellectual property is constantly changing. Part I focuses on sequences of events that have significantly influenced that meaning. In 18th century Europe, intellectual property advocates helped shape an IP ideology that cast intellectual property as antithetical to free trade. 20th century IP advocates did the opposite. The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property (TRIPS) is predicated on an IP ideology that casts intellectual property as essential to free trade.
520 $a Part II focuses on the technoscape of intellectual property. It shows that technological developments of the past quarter century have forced people to question the ideological underpinnings of the global IP regime. Copyright law essentially outlaws some new forms of digital creativity, and social interaction. It also keeps vast quantities of out-of-print books and old movies unavailable to the public. Patent law stifles innovation in the American technology sector, it makes some traditional farming methods illegal, and it prevents access to life-saving medicine in economically undeveloped countries. These inconveniences and injustices have caused people to question the goals of the global intellectual property system, and critically examine the economic framework on which it is based.
520 $a Part III explores two industries that have taken an alternative approach to IP regulation. The fashion industry is productive, and thrives despite -- or, perhaps, because of -- its lack of copyright protection. The open source software movement also takes an approach to IP that does not conform to the dominant conception of the ultimate goal of an IP regime.
