Biography
Teshager W. Dagne is Assistant Professor at Thompson Rivers University, Canada.
"This carefully researched book is a rare attempt to examine the role geographical indications can play in protecting traditional knowledge. The analysis is timely, balanced and insightful, and it captures well the ongoing international debate. The book should be of interest to anybody who cares about intellectual property, international trade, agricultural production, food security or cultural preservation."
