  • TRIPS and MONOPOLIES on SEEDS and MEDICINES Vandana
    295 PROFITEERING FROM DEATH: TRIPS AND MONOPOLIES ON SEEDS AND MEDICINES Vandana Shiva 1 1 WTO AND THE TRIPS AGREEMENT The Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights Agreement of WTO is the most far reaching in terms of creating corporate rights and corporate monopolies. During the Uruguay Round of the GATT, the United States introduced its flawed patent system into the WTO, and thus imposed it on the rest of the world. US Corporations have admitted that they drafted and lobbied on behalf of TRIPs. As a Monsanto spokesman said, “The industries and traders of world commerce have played simultaneously the role of patients, the diagnosticians, and prescribing physicians.” TRIPs not only made Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) laws global geographically, but also removed ethical boundaries by including life forms and biodiversity into patentable subject matter. Living organisms and life forms that are self-creating were thus redefined as machines and artifacts made and invented by the patentee. Intellectual property rights and patents then give the patent holder a monopolistic right to prevent others from making, using, or selling seeds. Seed saving by farmers has now been redefined from a sacred duty to a criminal offence of stealing “property”. Article 27.3 (b) of the TRIPs agreement, which relates to patents on living resources, was basically pushed by the “Life Science” companies to establish themselves as Lords of Life. The chemical companies of the world have bought up seed and biotechnology companies and reorganized themselves as Life Science corporations, claiming patents on genes, seeds, plants and animals. Ciba Geigy and Sandoz have combined to form Novartis, Hoechst has joined with Rhone 1 Phd in the Philosophy of Science (1978) , Right Livelihood Award (1993), director of the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology, New Delhi, India.

  • Transgénicos: El Prontuario Criminal De Monsanto Por Fernando Glenza
    Transgénicos: El prontuario criminal de Monsanto Por Fernando Glenza Agencia Prensa Mercosur Una reciente resolución de las autoridades científicas de Argentina invita a recordar la historia negra de esta transnacional norteamericana que atenta contra el medio ambiente y la vida. Monsanto se presenta a sí misma como una empresa visionaria, una fuerza de la historia mundial que trabaja para aportar ciencia de vanguardia y una actitud ambientalmente responsable a la solución de los problemas más urgentes de la humanidad. Pero, ¿qué es en realidad Monsanto? ¿Cuál es su origen? ¿Cómo llegó a ser el segundo productor mundial de agroquímicos y uno de los principales proveedores de semillas en el planeta?. ¿Es Monsanto la compañía "limpia y verde" que proclaman sus anuncios, o los mismos apenas representan una operación de imagen que oculta la naturaleza criminal de la compañía? En una Resolución del 13 de diciembre de 2004, el Comité Nacional de Etica en la Ciencia y la Tecnología (CECTE), dependiente del Ministerio de Educación, Ciencia y Tecnología de Argentina, tomó conocimiento de la convocatoria al Premio "Animarse a Emprender", instituido por el Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas, Educativas y Técnicas (CONICET) y la empresa Monsanto, que otorgaba 30 mil dólares al mejor proyecto en el área de biotecnología y medio ambiente, y recogió las inquietudes formuladas sobre este premio por algunos investigadores. En atención a esas consideraciones, el CECTE estimó que es "inconveniente" que una institución pública de la ciencia y la tecnología se asocie en el otorgamiento de premios a la investigación científica o tecnológica con organizaciones o empresas que "son objeto de cuestionamientos éticos por sus responsabilidades y acciones concretas en detrimento del bienestar general y el medioambiente".

I NVESTI GATI ON Monsanto already dominates America’s food chain with its genetically modified seeds. Now it has targeted milk production. Just as frightening as the corporation’s tactics–ruthless legal battles against small farmers–is its decades-long history of toxic contamination. BY DONALD L. BARLETT AND JAMES B. STEELE MAY 2008 No thanks: An anti-Monsanto crop circle made by farmers and volunteers in the Philippines. By Melvyn Calderon/Greenpeace HO/A.P. Images. Gary Rinehart clearly remembers the summer day in 2002 when the stranger walked in and issued his threat. Rinehart was behind the counter of the Square Deal, his “old-time country store,” as he calls it, on the fading town square of Eagleville, Missouri, a tiny farm community 100 miles north of Kansas City. The Square Deal is a fixture in Eagleville, a place where farmers and townspeople can go for lightbulbs, greeting cards, hunting gear, ice cream, aspirin, and dozens of other small items without having to drive to a big-box store in Bethany, the county seat, 15 miles down Interstate 35. Everyone knows Rinehart, who was born and raised in the area and runs one of Eagleville’s few surviving businesses. The stranger came up to the counter and asked for him by name. 1 of 19 4/18/2010 9:28 PM Monsanto's Harvest of Fear | Politics | Vanity Fair http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2008/05/monsanto200805?pri... “Well, that’s me,” said Rinehart.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION ARTS AND SCIENCES IDENTITY AND HIP-HOP: AN ANALYSIS OF EGO-FUNCTION IN THE COLLEGE DROPOUT AND THE MISEDUCATION OF LAURYN HILL LAURA KASTNER SPRING 2017 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Communication Arts & Sciences and Statistics with honors in Communication Arts & Sciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Anne Demo Assistant Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences Thesis Supervisor Lori Bedell Senior Lecturer of Communication Arts & Sciences Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT In this thesis, I will be analyzing how Kanye West and Lauryn Hill create identity for themselves and their listeners in the albums The College Dropout and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, respectively. Identity creation will be analyzed using Richard Gregg’s concept of ego-function. By applying the three stages of the theory – victimization of the ego, demonization of the enemy, and reaffirmation of the ego – to both albums, I hope to uncover the ways that both West and Hill contribute to identity creation. I also discuss the ways in which they create identity that cannot be explained by ego-function theory. I also briefly address the following questions: (1) How does the language of ego-function differ between the artists? (2) How does their music speak to listeners of different ethnicities? (3) What role does gender play in ego-function? Does the language of ego-function differ between genders? ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements ………………………………………………………………......iii Chapter 1 Introduction ................................................................................................. 1 Kanye West: The Jerk and the Genius ............................................................................
