Intellectual Property: Commodification and Its Discontents

In: Reading Karl Polanyi for the Twenty-First Century

Abstract

Intellectual property (IP) rights—property rights created through patent, copyright, and trademark law—have become the driving force not only of the U.S. economy, but also of U.S. international relations in general. IP has become the backbone of a world of “market states” held together by a growing string of free trade agreements imposed through U.S. economic might on an increasingly reluctant world.
