Mazé, Armelle
In this communication, we extend the analysis, using the pioneering work of Hess & Ostrom (2003, 2006), to understand the institutional and political dynamics at stake that are currently involved for its entitlement of geographical indications as a Global Knowledge Commons. Knowledge is here defined as a shared resource. With the globalization of trade, the increasing “enclosure” of the global information commons has been observed and subject to severe critics. Multiple forces are vying for capture and restriction of traditionally available knowledge: corporation versus indigenous people, government versus citizens, among others (Hess and Ostrom, 2003, 2007). In the literature, a number of research have also emphasized role of contractual registries in the rise and protection of property rights (Arrunada 2012).
