                  kelonggaran kepada negara­negara anggotanya untuk menentukan
                  sendiri bidang­bidang teknologi yang dapat diberi paten dan yang
                              33
                  dikecualikan.
                      Untuk  mempersempit  semakin besarnya  perbedaan  karena
                  adanya kelonggaran tersebut, WIPO dalam buku panduan yang
                  disebut  WIPO Model Law for Developing Countries on  Invention
                  memberikan panduan tentang bidang­bidang yang dapat dikecua­
                  likan dalam undang­undang Paten. Panduan ter sebut meliputi,

                      (i)  discoveries, scientific theories and mathematical methods;

                      (ii)   plant or animal varieties or essentially biological processes
                          for the production of plants or animals, other than microbio-
                          logical processes and the products of such processes;
                      (iii)  schemes, rules or methods for doing business, performing
                          purely for mental acts or playing games;

                      (iv)  methods for treatment of the human or animal body by sur-
                          gery or therapy, as well as diagnostic methods practiced on
                          the human or animal body: this provision shall not apply to
                          products for use in any of those methods. 34





                  33   World Intellectual Property Organication, op.cit., No. 21, Pasal 1 ayat (3) Konvensi Paris
                      menentukan, “(3) Industrial property shall be understood in the broadest sense and
                      shall apply not to industry and commerce proper, but likewise to agricultural and extrac-
                      tive industries and to all manufactured or natural products, for example, wines, grain,
                      tobacco leaf, fruit, cattle, minerals, mineral waters, beer, flowers, and flour.”

                      national Bureaux for the Protection of Intellectual Property (BIRPI), Geneve, hlm. 23.
                      Mengenai makna ketentuan Pasal 1 ayat (3) tersebut, Bodenhausen menulis, “(b) The
                      meaning of the provision is not that all subjects of industrial property indicated in para-
                      graph (2) of Article 1, such as patents, trademarks, etc., shall apply to all activities and
                      products mentioned in paragraph (3). There is therefore no obligation for the member
                      States to grant patents for wine, cattle and fruit, or to protect trademarks with respect to
                      minerals. The purpose of the provision is merely to avoid excluding from the protection
                      of industrial property activities or products which would otherwise run the risk of not
                      being assimilated to those of industry proper. The various industrial property rights will,
                      however, be applied to those activities and products only in so far as appropriate.”
