摘要/Abstract

摘要： 专利制度长期以来被学术界和政府视为激发创新热情、鼓励创新投入的最佳制度,然而随着主要发达国家的专利制度日趋强势和严厉,越来越多的经济学家及创新专家对此提出了质疑,认为过于严厉的专利制度不仅会阻碍创新而且不利于经济增长。温和的专利制度,并辅之以公共资助、政府奖励以及专利买断制度会使创新激励制度更为有效。

关键词: 专利制度, 创新, 经济增长, 创新激励制度

Abstract: Patent system has been regarded by the academia and governments as the best incentive mechanisms for inspiring passion for innovation and for encouraging innovation input. However, as the patent systems of main developed countries become increasingly stronger and stricter, more and more economists and innovation experts have continuously challenged this system. They point out that strong patent protection might hinder innovation and do harm to economic growth. Milder patent system working with other incentive mechanisms such as public funding, prizes, and patents buy-out will enable the innovation incentive system to operate more effectively.

Key words: patent system, innovation, economic growth, innovation incentive system
