Intellectual Property, Innovation and Economic Inequality cover

Top experts examine how intellectual property and economic inequality are connected in this interdisciplinary, globally oriented volume.

In this authoritative, interdisciplinary volume, leading experts from across the globe examine the link between intellectual property and economic inequality. Featuring economists, legal scholars, policy analysts, and other commentators, the book examines timely issues like race and gender disparities and the North-South divide in innovation.While growing disparities in wealth and income are well-documented across the globe, the role of intellectual property rights is often overlooked. This volume brings together leading commentators from around the world to interrogate the interrelationship between intellectual property and economic inequality. Interdisciplinary and globally oriented by design, the book features economists, legal scholars, policy analysts, and other experts. Chapters address the impact of intellectual property rights on economic inequality, the effect of economic inequality on the protection and enforcement of these rights, and the potential use of innovation law and policy to help reduce economic inequality. The volume also tackles timely issues like race and gender disparities and the North-South divide in innovation. This book is available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
