Based on an extensive array of national empirical and policy studies, Ove Granstrand explores a comprehensive range of innovation and intellectual property (IP) issues that pertain not only to Europe but to the entire world. These issues include the role of patents and licensing in the governance of technology and innovation, and the many uses and abuses of patents. The text also details new IP phenomena in an increasingly patent-intensive world with patent-rich multinationals and patent-savvy new entrants from Asia. In a world facing challenges that call for innovative responses, this book contains a set of valuable policy recommendations for strengthening innovativeness for economic growth and ultimately for social value creation.
This timely book will be a valuable resource for economics, law and management scholars wishing to gain a thorough understanding of the topic. Practitioners and policy-makers will also greatly benefit from reading this volume, following up on the author's widely acclaimed book published in 1999 The Economics and Management of Intellectual Property: Towards Intellectual Capitalism.
Industry Reviews
--David Teece, Berkeley Research Group, US
'Ove Granstrand's new book is both a broad and deep treatment of his subject. A general reader may value this original and important work for its international comparisons and its treatment of policy as well as more familiar economic issues. A reader with interest in the details of intellectual property may value the work for the penetrating questions asked in the author's research and the wealth of detail and evidence presented. The book is important in its advocacy of seeing patents as a dynamic factor influencing innovation rather than as simply having a static and protective role. Granstrand's treatment will be valuable to executive and political audiences as well as lawyers and economists.'
--James M. Utterback, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, US
'This is Ove Granstrand's best and most profound work to date. He casts intellectual capitalism as a global system, interfacing a variety of national policy regimes. He shows why the pro-patent era is also pro-licensing, as increasing spatial and organizational interdependencies necessitate shifts in governance structures.'
--John Cantwell, Rutgers University, US
