Encyclopedia: Sui Generis Sui Generis is one of the most important rock and roll (or folk rock) bands in Argentinean history. Sui Generis was formed in 1969 by the combination of two bands: "To walk spanish", led by Carlos Alberto "Charlie" García Moreno and "The Century indignation", starring Carlos Alberto "Nito" Mestre. In 1976, Sui Generis also recorded an LP with Argentinean musicians León Gieco and Raúl Porchetto (whose music resembled Gieco's in a softer pop version) as well as María Rosa Yorio. www.nationmaster.com /encyclopedia/Sui-Generis   (1438 words)

III. Sui generis Systems: Effective to Achieve the Objectives and Principles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07) Also, what "sui generis system" satisfies the obligation is unclear and a subject of differing views. Sui generis systems adopted by developing countries, on the whole, go contrary to UPOV 91 in several respects; they would prefer UPOV 78 (whose "membership", at 29, still far exceeds UPOV 91, at 16). To be effective, provisions in sui generis systems should be complemented by provisions on protecting intellectual property rights such as patents, because these could be a way around the sui generis rules. www.southcentre.org /publications/occasional/paper02/paper2-04.htm   (1482 words)

South Bulletin 34 - The Relevance of Sui Generis Systems to Africa The title of his full presentation was "Sui Generis" systems: The case of the "OAU Model Law on the protection of the rights of local communities, farmers and breeders and for the regulation of access to biological resources". Even though the concept "sui generis" confers uniqueness (of its own kind), the operators of the formal systems of protection were hardly prepared to accept any incursions into the single model with which they were familiar. The concept and practice of "sui generis" as a form of protection in the new world order of trade and commerce is new to most African States. www.southcentre.org /info/southbulletin/bulletin34/bulletin34-04.htm   (3057 words)

GRAIN | Seedling | 1997 | TOWARDS OUR SUI GENERIS RIGHTS Civil society advocates have been racking their brains to figure out whether and how this sui generis option could be used to enact Farmers' Rights or some other sui generis legal system to protect communities' intellectual rights and promote continued management of biodiversity at the grassroots level. Sui generis rights are in total conflict with patent laws: either we protect communities' interests or we protect the multinational corporations. We focused in particular on the sui generis rights option for intellectual property over plant varieties as imposed on all WTO member states by the TRIPS Agreement, as well as on other international agreements related to biodiversity such as the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). www.grain.org /seedling?id=129   (2952 words)

Biotechnology and Development Monitor, No. 34, p. 2-5. For instance, a sui generis system for plant varieties must comply with the basic principles of national treatment, meaning that member states are obliged to grant to non-nationals the same advantages as to its own nationals. A sui generis system that puts the emphasis on the place of invention could be in full compliance with the TRIPS principle of national treatment. The linkages between the several sui generis approaches, as well as efforts to enable local communities to ground their rights in national and international legislations, are numerous. www.biotech-monitor.nl /3402.htm   (2351 words)

Sui Generis This describes well the basis of Sui Generis, which aims to uphold and develop the originality, creativity, and sanctity of each person, and to empower them to grow into who they truly are. "Sui Generis" is a way of being that will 1) enable and encourage a community to respect, promote, and support the uniqueness and individuality of each person, and empower them to grow into who they truly are called to be. Sui Generis is based on the application of Complementarity, a comprehensive, objective new cognitive structure or framework that facilitates the integration of unity and diversity. www.chebucto.ns.ca /Philosophy/Sui-Generis   (731 words)

GRAIN | Briefings | 1998 | SIGNPOSTS To Sui Generis Righ Others have been racking their brains to figure out whether and how this sui generis option could be used to enact Farmers' Rights or some other sui generis legal system to protect communities' intellectual rights and promote continued management biodiversity at the grassroots level. At the same time, sui generis rights for local communities have to be urgently developed in another context, based on a different set of values, controlled by the people themselves. Sui generis rights are in total conflict with patent laws: either we protect communities' interests or we protect the TNCs. www.grain.org /publications/signposts.htm   (1630 words)

sui generis Database Protection: Has Its Time Come? First, the opponents contend that despite the outcry from some database companies that sui generis protection is necessary to protect their investments in compiling databases, adequate protection currently exists within the present intellectual property law framework. Besides these general objections to sui generis protection for databases, the opponents had a list of specific concerns with H.R. It is, of course, too early to tell if these same areas of concern will remain with respect to new legislation, if and when it is introduced. Because the bill permitted cumulation of copyright and sui generis protection, works that would normally be protected under the copyright laws would have been able to receive additional protection under H.R. The protection provided for these works under the bill was equally sweeping in nature. www.dlib.org /dlib/june97/06band.html   (3279 words)

O homoerotismo nas revistas Sui Generis e Homens A redação da Sui Generis é, dessa forma, bastante homogênea. A Homens, diferentemente da Sui Generis, não busca falar a uma comunidade de interesses homossexuais unificada, mas sim se volta às diversas variantes do homossexual: a bicha, o bofe, o travesti, etc. O desejo não ocorre sempre e necessariamente entre dois homossexuais. Sui Generis investigou as motivações destas aventuras extraconjugais que, segundo os especialistas, na maioria das vezes, escamoteia uma homossexualidade latente. www.artnet.com.br /%7Emarko/ohomoero.htm   (5568 words)

Sui generis -[ruv.net : Information Portal]- Sui generis is a (post) Latin expression, literally meaning Of its own gender/genus. In law, a grant of exclusive rights ("intellectual property") to owners of a small class of works, such as mask work, ship hull design[?], databases, or plant species. The expression was effectively created by scholastic philosophy to indicate an idea, an entity or a reality that cannot be included in a wider concept, and in the structure genus > species a species that heads an own genus. www.artpolitic.org /infopedia/su/Sui_generis.html   (233 words)

GRAIN | Briefings | 1999 | Beyond UPOV Sui generis simply means special or unique, leaving the matter completely open to interpretation. Kenya's position is that the differences of interpretation of Article 27.3(b), plus the controversy surrounding the sui generis option itself, merit a five-year extension of the implementation deadline for developing countries. The Biodiversity Law decrees (Article 82) that communities are the holders of sui generis community intellectual rights which exist and are henceforth recognised and protected by the State owing to the mere existence of cultural practices or knowledge related to genetic resources and biochemicals. www.grain.org /publications/nonupov-en.cfm   (3087 words)

Sui Generis Sui Generis surge de la fusión de dos bandas acústicas juveniles, que se hacían escuchar en los colegios de Caballito. Junto a él y a Carlos Piegari, Beto Rodríguez, Juan Belia y Alejandro Correa formó Sui Generis, que, tras sufrir varias deserciones por diversos motivos (y en vísperas de un recital), quedó convertido en un dúo. En 1993, Nito publicó "Canta a Sui Generis", una recopilación que contenía los hits más importantes del dúo, pero con sonido de los '90. www.rock.com.ar /bios/0/262.shtml   (749 words)

SUI GENERIS, A DEAD END ALLEY? NGOs hoped that these sui generis -- meaning of its own kind or unique -- systems might be developed in a way that could limit the influence of the limited 'blueprint' approach to protection that patents and PBRs offer, and provide some protection for traditional knowledge and innovation systems. In looking for alternatives, we should take note that many of the proposals for sui generis system have made exactly the same assumption that many industrialized country representatives have made in the international negotiations: that protecting property rights over knowledge and biotic resources is equivalent to protecting knowledge and biotic resources. Secondly, the problem with concept of intellectual property over knowledge and life forms is not whether it comes from the North or the South: but simply that the concept as such has never existed in indigenous or peasant systems.... www.sunsonline.org /trade/areas/environm/02260197.htm   (2147 words)

SIGNPOSTS TO SUI GENERIS RIGHTS Any sui generis rights legislation which does not purposefully narrow or frustrate the operating field of the industrial IPR system, if not close off certain "territories", will do nothing to address the basic problem of biopiracy or the alienation of peoples' rights to control their local resources. Another problem apparent in most current approaches to sui generis legislation is the dilemma of how to avoid that legislating rights in the race to please WTO or CBD or just to fend off biopirates leads to imposing an unwanted juridical personality on communities. If sui generis rights related to biodiversity are to legally protect the space that belongs to communities, then they will need to recognise the collective nature of the resources, the knowledge and the innovations in question. www.ukabc.org /suigen1.htm   (6472 words)

Kieran Healy’s Weblog » Blog Archive » Sui Generis One of the favorite tropes of the blogging world, for instance, is the David vs Goliath story of the lone (self-taught, self-powered, grittily independent) blogger assiduously fact-checking Big Media or producing a devastating critique of some bit of mainstream science or other. It’s the same story: the lone blogger is just another version of the artist without a past, upending the conventional wisdom with his special brand of outsider-status and sui generis credibility.

Manufacturing Religion: The Discourse Of Sui Generis Religion And The Politics Of Nostalgia; Author: Mccutcheon, ... This provocative book offers a powerful critique of traditional religion scholarship, and particularly the oft-repeated bromide that religion is a sui generis phenomenon. McCutcheon skillfully analyzes the ideological basis for and service of this claim, demonstrating that it has been used to render the field's object of study ahistorical, apolitical, fetishized, and sacrosanct. It covers the history of religions as a discipline, and examines the ideological basis for, and service of, the sui generis argument. www.netstoreusa.com /rkbooks/019/0195105036.shtml   (257 words)
