Patent Breadth in an International Setting
Bond, Eric; Zissimos, Benjamin - 2017
We examine the Nash equilibria of a game where two national governments set patent breadth strategically. Broader patents make R&D more attractive, but the effect on static efficiency is nonmonotonic. In a North.South model, where only the North can innovate, harmonization of patent breadth...
