| Abstract: | The spreading recognition of the importance of competition has been supplemented by a persistent process of globalization. In a knowledge-driven economy, the successful protection of IPR is emerging as a crucial ingredient for commercial success. The two bodies of laws are complementary because both pursue a welfare objective. IP laws do so by creating and defending the right of innovators to exclude others from using their ideas. Antitrust laws protect dynamic competition in the marketplace, while intellectual property laws protect the means to receive earnings on the investments needed to innovate. The economic analysis utilizing the author’s zekipr1 index shows a complementarity of IPRs and competitiveness regarding FDI inwards and FDI outwards. |
