Abstract

Free Trade agreements have had extraordinary effects on the production and use of pharmaceuticals in India. Following the Word Trade Organisation’s Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property, there has been a plethora of attempts at the level of international trade negotiations to extend the rights of pharmaceutical companies over medicinal compounds. This chapter explores this area’s developments showing how it has been a detrimental development for countries such as India.
