DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS

Abbreviated Lit. Review infojustice.org/tpp Fink and Mascus, 2005 “Existing research suggests that countries that strengthen their IPR are unlikely to experience a sudden boost in inflows of FDI. At the same time, the empirical evidence does point to a positive role for IPRs in stimulating formal technology transfer.” “Developing countries should carefully assess whether the economic benefits of such rules outweigh their costs. They also need to take into account the costs of administering and enforcing a reformed IPR system” “We still know relatively little about the way technology diffuses internationally.”

“[T]he ability of patent holders to charge for the use of their patent rights, either in the form of royalties or through end product prices is constrained by the ability of the country granting the patent to pay. Poor countries will inevitably pay proportionately less than wealthy countries for the use of patent rights.” -Edmund Kitch (1994)
