Abstract

Les licences obligatoires sont-elles bonnes pour la santé publique au Sud ? Cet article propose une revue de la littérature qui examine le lien entre cette flexibilité de l’accord ADPIC, visant à suspendre temporairement le monopole d’exploitation associé à la détention d’un brevet et autoriser la production de médicaments génériques, et l’accessibilité des médicaments dans les pays en développement. À la lumière d’un cadre conceptuel précisant les trois dimensions de l’accessibilité, cette revue permettra de confronter systématiquement les arguments théoriques et les faits empiriques en discutant successivement de l’impact de la licence obligatoire sur l’abordabilité, la disponibilité et la qualité des médicaments antisida au Sud. Ainsi, il sera montré que le débat n’est pas tranché concernant l’utilité de la licence obligatoire en matière de promotion de la santé publique tandis que son usage reste de fait rare et compliqué dans l’hémisphère Sud.
