She examines the concept of "community," intellectual property models, and additional sources for protection at international law, including environmental and human rights frameworks. The text sets out a model based on the concept of community resources, recognizing the unique claims embodied in traditional knowledge, incorporating customary law, and facilitating community management of resources. Of interest to academics and researchers in law, international relations, and cultural studies. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
