“…These perspectives reveal the interviewees' own stories about their experiences (Tyson, 1996) and represent a form of (recent) oral history (“a history built around people” (Thompson, 1978, p. 18)) of the operation of the ICAI disciplinary decision making process up to the end of 1999. Interviews “capture paradox and reveal a complex reality in which constraints and choices are inextricably interconnected” (Jones and Ostrerud, 1989, cited in Tyson, 1996) and provide insights into what people felt about their experiences. As with many oral histories our focus is on processes of decision‐making, which explicitly recognise the inherent subjectivity of the interview process (Tyson, 1996).…”

PurposeThis paper aims to advance understanding of the disciplinary decision‐making process underpinning the professional ethics machinery employed by professional accounting organisations, using elements of francophone organisational analysis to examine the influence of the key formal organisational components established by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland (ICAI) to administer its disciplinary decision‐making process up to December 1999.Design/methodology/approachThe paper uses evidence gathered from a series of in‐depth interviews with members of the ICAI disciplinary and investigation committees.FindingsIlluminates the internal tensions and conflicts permeating the disciplinary decision‐making process of the ICAI and the influence key organisational components have on resolving these conflicts through their encouragement of decision making driven by a preferred reasoning or logic of action.Research limitations/implicationsThe evidence presented questions the public interest proclamations of the ICAI with respect to its disciplinary procedures pre‐December 1999. It further exposes the tensions between profession protection and society protection motives in the disciplinary decision making of accounting bodies.Originality/valueThis paper represents a first attempt at getting inside the disciplinary decision‐making process of a professional accounting body to examine the process using the voices of process participants.

“…A história oral permite o conhecimento de novas perspectivas do passado, bem como o registro de dimensões temporais da experiência material humana e aspectos da vida cotidiana, que de outra forma se perderiam. Além disso, ela pode explicar o processo através do qual a memória é construída dentro das famílias e comunidades (Jones, 1989;Shopes, 2004). Com o uso da história oral foi possível descrever as estratégias de sobrevivência das comunidades, presentes e pretéritas, bem como as práticas envolvidas, os comportamentos e significados conectados a este processo (Cassab & Ruscheinsk, 2004).…”

“…The global agricultural economy stands as an arena where IPRs wield significant influence, challenging traditional paradigms while fostering innovation and economic growth [21]. Agriculture, as the bedrock of human sustenance and economic activity, has undergone profound transformations in recent decades [22]. These transformations have been driven, in part, by the ever-expanding reach of intellectual property protections into the fields, laboratories, and markets where food and agricultural products are produced, developed, and traded [23].…”

The agricultural sector is no stranger to the importance of intellectual property, as it serves as a catalyst for innovation, facilitates the transfer of technology, and safeguards the rights of creators and inventors. By examining the effects of IPRs on various dimensions, this paper seeks to shed light on the far-reaching implications for the agricultural industry worldwide. First and foremost, the review explores the intricate relationship between IPRs and agricultural research and development. IPRs are known to provide essential incentives for scientists and researchers to engage in ground-breaking agri-scientific endeavors, leading to advancements in productivity, sustainability, and food security. By offering legal protection and rewards for their innovations, IPRs encourage investment in agricultural R&D, driving progress in crop improvement, genetics, and biotechnology. Furthermore, the review delves into the impact of IPRs on farmers' access to seeds and genetic resources. While strong intellectual property regimes ensure fair compensation for breeders and innovators, concerns arise regarding the potentially limited access to seeds, especially for small-scale farmers in developing countries. Balancing the rights of breeders and the needs of farmers becomes a crucial aspect of agricultural policy formulation, aiming for a sustainable and inclusive agricultural system. Additionally, the review scrutinizes how IPRs affect the overall competitiveness of the agricultural market. IPRs enable agricultural enterprises to gain a competitive advantage through exclusive rights over their unique plant varieties, processes, or technologies. However, the high costs associated with intellectual property protection may pose barriers for smaller farmers and agricultural communities, exacerbating inequalities within the sector. While intellectual property rights undoubtedly play a vital role in fostering agricultural innovation and protection, the review also sheds light on the challenges and controversies associated with IPRs. The potential negative impacts on small-scale farmers, the concerns surrounding access to genetic resources, and the implications for biodiversity conservation all warrant careful consideration in the formulation of IPR policies. Through a comprehensive analysis of scholarly articles, reports, and case studies, this review provides valuable insights for policymakers, stakeholders, and researchers concerned with the multifaceted impacts of intellectual property rights on the global agricultural economy. By understanding these complexities, it becomes possible to strike a balance that maximizes the benefits of IPRs while ensuring equitable and sustainable agricultural development.
