DESCRIPTION
It seems that free software is gaining gradually ground, the generic brands gain strength at chemist’s and distribution brands sweep in supermarkets. Are we facing the end of an age of patents and intellectual property ? Perhaps are we witnessing the breakup of a long-discussed system? From the day it was introduced there were people who considered intellectual property as a source of ambition for creation. However, many people diagnosed an inegalitarian system and a brake on innovation. In this module we will see the pros and cons of a system that has allowed science to get here, but that already looks to be reaching an end, we will know its progress and lobbyists who are leading the debate. Because in the age of innovation, there are many interests involved.
