<title>Blog: How the European patent system works</title>
|
||
<body>
|
||
<p> Now that software patents are back on the table, it’s
|
||
important to understand how the European patent system actually
|
||
works. You need to know this in order to discuss the unitary
|
||
patent and FSFE’s demands with the MEPs you call and ask for
|
||
support. Patent policy belongs under legislative control. Our current
|
||
political processes and institutions aren’t perfect, but they’re
|
||
certainly better than the EPO’s secretive insider culture. Good
|
||
patent policy needs transparency, accountability and
|
||
participation. The current proposal for the unitary patent lacks
|
||
all of these things.
