Intellectual Property: Economic and Legal Dimensions of Rights and Remedies Book

Intellectual property refers to exclusive rights in, among other things, inventions (patents), works of authorship (copyright), and source-identifying symbols (trademarks). Intellectual property law is generally viewed as a means for inducing the optimal supply of inventions, works, and symbols. Economics provides some useful tools for determining whether the legal rules at issue are more or less likely to achieve this goal. This book in particular addresses the law and economics of a variety of topics that have been underanalyzed in the existing literature, including remedies such as injunctions and damages, the relevance of the defendant's mental state, and matters relating to the enforcement of intellectual property rights in court proceedings.Read More

  • Product Description

    This book addresses several aspects of the law and economics of intellectual property rights (IPRs) that have been underanalyzed in the existing literature. The authors demonstrate that the core assumption of IPR regimes--that IPRs maximize certain social benefits over social costs by providing a necessary inducement for the production and distribution of intellectual products--has several important implications for the optimal design of remedies, the standard of care, and the law of standing and joinder.
