Description
Summary:	"While growing disparities in wealth and income are well documented across the globe, the role of intellectual property rights is often overlooked. This volume brings together economists, legal scholars, policy analysts, and others from around the world to interrogate the interrelationship between intellectual property and economic inequality. Chapters address the impact of intellectual property rights on economic inequality, the effect of economic inequality on the protection and enforcement of these rights, and the potential use of innovation law and policy to help reduce economic inequality. The volume also tackles issues like race and gender disparities and the North-South divide in innovation."--
