Abstract
The paper will explore the object and purpose of intellectual property from both a confrontational and practical perspective. On a conventional analysis the object and purpose of intellectual property (“IP”) is to encourage and reward different forms of innovation and creativity, which will contribute to addressing societal challenges at least in the longer term. Valuable work against the backdrop of Articles 7 and 8 TRIPS and proposals developed regard their impact (Slade) particularly regarding the place of IP alongside other laws in dispute resolution (Frankel) and more generally (Grosse Ruse-Khan) makes it clear that all this exists alongside, and is intertwined with, other legal fields.
These intersections remain under developed at national level, particularly regarding addressing climate change through technology against the backdrop of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and its outputs and Technology Mechanism.
