Dear Reader,
were the last blog or the causes of the abuse of intellectual property in the foreground, I would like today than accounts for the year 2007, the behavior of endangered or damaged owners question. In other words, it is about the objectives of the protection of Intellectual Property:
State protection goals
Away from the not discussed here welfare effects of socialization attempts in-novative and creative works of the State, the contestability of the market maintain for intellectual property. With the establishment of institutional framework once it intends to minimize the risk of market failure by economically undesirable externalities from the abuse of intellectual work results and to create incentives for state-goal-oriented research and development efforts. Second, seek state regulatory measures to limit the degree and duration of the exclusion of third parties will benefit, as effects of creative services - independent special interests of rights holders - to
- the intensification tion of innovation and creativity competition
- increasing economic growth and
- promoting cultural development of society.
In contrast to the state is the design and exploitation of protective mechanisms by private market players focus less on market regulation and welfare-related aspects. It is therefore rather, the intent of individual need satisfaction from the economic performance of utilization of innovative and creative works followed. Accordingly, measures intended to preserve intellectual property from uncompensated private association receiving the da-out profit gained. were defined by law before the expiration of terms of protection or rights holder before amortize investment in innovation and also achieve adequate profits to the unauthorized exercise of property rights in intellectual property can be prevented. In addition, you will receive the degree of novelty of innovation and intellectual property resulting competitive advantages and unique selling points and the position taken by innovative lead market position to secure the long term and expand it if possible. To achieve this, protection measures designed to displace existing competitors or potential competitors by preventing the establishment of market barriers to the market.
I wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
After the presentation of selected protective mechanisms in the new year I will finish the digression about intellectual property (for a detailed analysis of this issue, see the book written by me - Feuerzangenbowle Greetings - "Intellectual Property in the age of digitization and the Internet " http://books.google.com/books/duv?id=Uxye7TUZZsQC&hl=de ) and return to the usual daily satirical analysis of current developments in knowledge management and process management.
I hope you keep me as a reader weighed.
