Geistiges Eigentum und ‚indigenes‘ Wissen: Weder Gans noch goldene Eier

  • Chapter
Konfliktfeld Natur

Zusammenfassung

Die zu Indien gehörigen Inseln der Andamanen und Nikobaren in der Bucht von Bengalen, die in den letzten Jahren ab und an als Ausbund an Exotik in der Presse waren, sind die Heimat mehrerer indigener Gruppen. Dazu zählen die Onge, die Jarawa und die Sentinelen1 Während der letzten Jahrzehnte hat die Mitgliederzahl dieser verschiedenen Gruppen rasch abgenommen, ihre Lebensweisen haben sich verändert, und einige von ihnen stehen buchstäblich vor der Ausrottung (Mukerjee 1995).

„Knowledge is not simply another commodity. On the contrary. Knowledge is never used up. It increases by diffusion and grows by dispersion.“

(Daniel J. Boorstin, Bibliothekar an der Library of Congress)
