Books by Peter (Australian National University Drahos

After colonization, indigenous people faced an extractive property rights regime for both their land and knowledge. This book outlines that regime, how international intellectual property continues today to assist states to enclose indigenous peoples' knowledge and the networked response of indigenous people to this enclosure.

Patent offices around the world have granted millions of patents to multinational companies. Based on a study of 45 rich and poor countries that takes in the world's largest and smallest offices, the book is for those interested in intellectual property, patent reform, globalisation, governance, development, international relations and economics.
