| Research Abstract |
This research project investigated the role of private firms' incentives to protect intellectual property protection for their inventions in R&D activity and the aggregate rate of technological progress. The major finding is that when firms have sufficiently strong incentives to protect their inventions, the aggregate rate of technological progress tends to be low. This research also shows that the rate of technological progress is maximized at a very lower level of the effectiveness of private activity for IPR protection.
