知识产权本质的多维度解读

从价值目标和制度功能的多维角度出发,可以对知识产权的本质进行不同的描述:在私人层面,它是知识财产私有的权利形态;在国家层面,它是政府公共政策的制度选择;在国际层面,它是世界贸易体制的基本规则。上述三个范畴并非是知识产权的全部品性,但或许是关于知识产权本质的基本认识。

A Multi-Dimensional Reading of the Nature of Intellectual Property

From the different perspective of value and the function of institution, the essence of Intellectual Property Right can be described in different ways: From a individual point of view, Intellectual Property Right can be described as a kind of right form through which one can own a Intellectual Property. From a national point of view, Intellectual Property Right can be described as the choice of Public Policy by the government. From a international point of view, Intellectual Property Right can be described as the basic rule of international framework for trade. Although those points of view may not conclude all the characters of Intellectual Property Right, they may be seen as the basic knowledge of it.
