The headquarters of the European Patent Office ( EPO) is not a place known for political activism. And yet, on a cool morning in October 2013, dozens of protestors barricaded themselves in front of the EPOs main buildings in Munich and demanded that the patent bureaucracy Stop Patents on Life. These civil society challengersincluding farmers, environmentalists, representatives of international development organizations, and average citizenshad gathered to oppose the EPOs decisions to permit patents on conventional plants and animals bred using biotechnology, which, they argued, would accelerate dangerous consolidation in the agricultural industry. Equally important, they suggested, such patents would continue to disempower small farmers, who would be forced to depend on patent holders for their crops and ultimately have trouble maintaining independent businesses. But underlying all of these arguments lay concerns that the EPO was, as their signs put it, a democracy-free zone. Protestors charged that the patent bureaucracy did not adequately consider the will of the European people, but instead privileged private interests while cloaking its decisions in technical and legal language.
