Clauses in**Trade Agreements

The South Centre is pleased to announce the publication of Policy Brief 
No. 37 entitled "The Need to Avoid “TRIPS-Plus” Patent Clauses in Trade 
Agreements"**by Martin Khor, Executive Director of the South Centre.

A recent article in a prestigious journal reminds us of how the 
intellectual property chapter of free trade agreements can prevent the 
sick from getting treatment.

This article also critiques the TPP clauses and warns that they should 
not be translated to national laws or copied into other FTAs being 
negotiated.
