The Creativity Effect, Christopher Sprigman, Christopher Buccafusco
The Creativity Effect, Christopher Sprigman, Christopher Buccafusco
Christopher Sprigman
This paper reports the first experiment to demonstrate the existence of a valuation anomaly associated with the creation of new works. To date, a wealth of social science research has shown that substantial valuation asymmetries exist between owners of goods and potential purchasers of them. The least amount of money that owners are willing to accept to part with their possessions is often far greater than the amount that purchasers would be willing to pay to obtain them. This phenomenon, known as the endowment effect, may create substantial inefficiencies in many markets. Our experiment demonstrates the existence of a related …

Reviving An Epithet: A New Way Forward For The Essential Facilities Doctrine, Sandeep Vaheesan
Reviving An Epithet: A New Way Forward For The Essential Facilities Doctrine, Sandeep Vaheesan
Sandeep Vaheesan
For sound economic reasons, the antitrust laws, in general, do not require firms to share their assets with rivals. When a particular asset has natural monopoly characteristics and is used as an input in other markets, however, the essential facilities doctrine requires that the asset be shared with firms in related markets. In recent decades, the Supreme Court and leading scholars have criticized the doctrine, claiming it is economically inefficient and taxes the institutional capacity of the judiciary.
Historically, the courts most often applied the doctrine to tangible natural monopolies like electric transmission grids and bottleneck railroad lines. In recent …
Relational Contract Theory And Management Contracts: A Paradigm For The Application Of The Theory Of The Norms, Michael Diathesopoulos
Relational Contract Theory And Management Contracts: A Paradigm For The Application Of The Theory Of The Norms, Michael Diathesopoulos
Michael Diathesopoulos
This paper examines management contracts as a paradigm for the application of relational contracts theory and especially of the theory of contractual and relational norms. This theory, deriving from Macauley's implications, but structured and analysed by I.R. MacNeil gives us a framework for the explanation and understanding of contractual obligations and business relations' rules and practice. After presenting the key literature about the norms theory and especially defining the content of MacNeil's norms, we define management contracts as relations, characterised by a high relational element and we explain why, investigating all their features, which make them a suitable object for …
Costos Sin Beneficios Análisis Económico Del Artículo 5 Bis Recientemente Incorporado Al Régimen De La Propiedad Intelectual, Maximiliano Marzetti
Costos Sin Beneficios Análisis Económico Del Artículo 5 Bis Recientemente Incorporado Al Régimen De La Propiedad Intelectual, Maximiliano Marzetti
Maximiliano Marzetti
El AED sirve para muchas cosas, en éste caso para atacar los pseudo-argumentos de una ley económicamente ineficiente y para descubrir los ganadores y perdedores de una reforma legislativa.
La reciente ley Nº 26.570 (que ha pasado casi desapercibida para la mayoría de los argentinos) incorpora el artículo 5 bis al Régimen de la Propiedad Intelectual (Ley Nº 11.723).
Un sólo artículo ha sido suficiente para extender el monopolio económico de artístas-intérpretes y productores de fonogramas por 20 años más (sin ninguna justificación valedera).
Han ganado los productores de fonogramas y las agencias de gestión colectiva; han perdido los consumidores …
Valuing Intellectual Property: An Experiment, Christopher Sprigman, Christopher Buccafusco
Valuing Intellectual Property: An Experiment, Christopher Sprigman, Christopher Buccafusco
Christopher Sprigman
In this article we report on the results of an experiment we performed to determine whether transactions in intellectual property (IP) are subject to the valuation anomalies commonly referred to as “endowment effects”. Traditional conceptions of the value of IP rely on assumptions about human rationality derived from classical economics. The law assumes that when people make decisions about buying, selling, and licensing IP they do so with fixed, context-independent preferences. Over the past several decades, this rational actor model of classical economics has come under attack by behavioral data showing that people do not always make strictly rational decisions. …
When Users Are Authors: Authorship In The Age Of Digital Media, Alina Ng
When Users Are Authors: Authorship In The Age Of Digital Media, Alina Ng
Alina Ng
This Article explores what authorship and creative production means in the digital age. Notions of the author as the creator of the work provided a point of reference for recognizing ownership rights in literary and artistic works in conventional copyright jurisprudence. The role of the author, as the creator and producer of a work, has been seen as distinct and separate from that of the publisher and user. Copyright laws and customary norms protect the author’s rights in his creation to provide the incentive to create and allow him to appropriate the social value generated by his creativity as recognition …
Of Mice And Men: Why An Anticommons Has Not Emerged In The Biotechnological Realm, Chester J. Shiu
Of Mice And Men: Why An Anticommons Has Not Emerged In The Biotechnological Realm, Chester J. Shiu
Chester J Shiu
In 1998 Michael Heller and Rebecca Eisenberg posited that excessive patenting of fundamental biomedical innovations might create a “tragedy of the anticommons.” A decade later, their dire predictions have not come to pass, an outcome which calls much of the legal scholarship on the topic into question. This Article proposes that legal commentators’ theoretical arguments have largely ignored two very important factors. First, the National Institutes of Health (NIH)—the single most important actor in the biomedical research industry—has played an active role in keeping the biomedical research domain open. In particular, regardless of what the current patent regime may theoretically …

One Size Does Not Fit All: A Framework For Tailoring Intellectual Property Rights, Michael W. Carroll
One Size Does Not Fit All: A Framework For Tailoring Intellectual Property Rights, Michael W. Carroll
Michael W. Carroll
The United States and its trading partners have adopted cultural and innovation policies under which the government grants one-size-fits-all patents and copyrights to inventors and authors. On a global basis, the reasons for doing so vary, but in the United States granting intellectual property rights has been justified as the principal means of promoting innovation and cultural progress. Until recently, however, few have questioned the wisdom of using such blunt policy instruments to promote progress in a wide range of industries in which the economics of innovation varies considerably.
Provisionally accepting the assumptions of the traditional economic case for intellectual …
