Reviews

'...provides a fascinating account of the policy-making process related to agrobiodiversity. The analysis documents how the clash between access regulations, breeders' rights and patent rights has had adverse effects on the management of plant genetic resources in developing countries...makes a valuable contribution to the policy debate on the national and international management of agrobiodiversity.' Jean-Paul Chavas, University of Wisconsin, USA 'The proliferation of overlapping international regimes poses new challenges for international governance. This study provides an extremely useful and timely overview of the complexity and negative aggregate effects of the regime constellation governing agrobiodiversity at the national level. This is a theoretically and empirically rich analysis, with direct policy relevance, which will stimulate much needed research into new forms of international environmental governance.' ' Philippe Le Prestre, Universite Laval, Canada
