Special 301 And Access To Medicine In The Obama Administration, Sean Flynn

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

I. Introduction

This article examines the history and current use of the Special 301 program to restrict access to generic medicines in developing countries, specifically the 2009 and 2010 reports released under the Obama Administration.
