English As the World Trade Organization increases its control over intellectual property rights, more power is put in the hands of multinational corporations, especially with regard to patent rights. The results of this trend are a funnelling of capital and resources from developing countries. There is a growing debate over the legitimacy of the agreement, as it is antithetical to social justice and human rights. French En ces temps de hausse des contrôles sur les droits de propriété intellectuelle par l'Organisation mondiale du commerce, des pouvoirs accrus passent aux mains des corporations multi-nationales, en ce qui a trait aux brevets d'invention en particulier. Ces tendances ont pour résultats le passage de capitaux et de ressources des nations en voie de développement vers d'autres lieux. Ces tendances étant à l'antithèse de la justice sociale et des droits humains, la question de la légitimité des accords donne lieu à des débats grandissants. Spanish A medida que la Organización Mundial de Comercio aumenta su control sobre los derechos de propiedad intelectual, se pone mayor poder en manos de las corporaciones multinacionales, especialmente en el campo de los derechos de patente. Esta tendencia ha dado por resultado, en los países en vías de desarrollo, el provocar la extracción indebida de su capital y sus recursos. Crece hoy el debate sobre la legitimidad de tal acuerdo, ya que es antitético a la justicia social y a los derechos humanos
