Intellectual Property, Innovation and Economic Inequality
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 leading commentators from around the world to interrogate the interrelationship between intellectual property and economic inequality.Interdisciplinary and globally oriented by design, the book features economists, legal scholars, policy analysts, and other experts.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 timely issues like race and gender disparities and the North-South divide in innovation.This book is available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The Copywrights : Intellectual Property and the Literary Imagination
They borrow from published works without attribution.They remake literary creation in the image of consumption.They celebrate the art of scissors and paste. Who are these outlaws? Postmodern culture-jammers or file-sharing teens? No, they are the Copywrights—Victorian and modernist writers, among them Oscar Wilde and James Joyce, whose work wrestled with the intellectual property laws of their day.In a highly readable and thought-provoking book that places today's copyright wars in historical context, Paul K.Saint-Amour asks: Would their art have survived the copyright laws of the new millennium?Revisiting major works by Wilde and Joyce as well as centos assembled by anonymous writers from existing poems, Saint-Amour sees the period 1830–1930 as a time when imaginative literature became aware of its own status as intellectual property and began to register that awareness in its subjects, plots, and formal architecture.The authors of these self-reflexive literary texts were more conscious than their precursors of the role played by consumption in both the composition and the consecration of literature.The texts in question became, in turn, part of what Saint-Amour characterizes as a "counterdiscourse" to extensive monopoly copyright, a vocal minority that insisted on a broadly conceived public domain not only as indispensable to free expression and fresh creation but as a good in itself.Recent events such as the court battle over the Copyright Term Extension Act (CTEA), which extends copyright terms by 20 years, the patenting of the human genome and of genetically altered seed lines, and high-stakes controversies over literary parody have increased public awareness of intellectual property law.In The Copywrights, Saint-Amour challenges the notion that copyright's function ends with the provision of private incentives to creation and innovation.The cases he examines lead him to argue that copyright performs a range of political, emotional, and even sacred functions that are too often ignored and that what seems to have emerged as copyright's primary function—the creation of private property incentives—must not be an end in itself.

Intellectual Property Valuation and Innovation : Towards global harmonisation
With the recent global economic crisis, attitudes and practices in relation to intellectual property valuation are changing as exemplified by the dichotomy explained in this book, which makes it unique.While there has been a move towards global harmonisation in terms of valuation of both tangible and intangible assets that are based on innovation, there is also a tendency against global harmonisation because of cultural attitudes and practices of different countries.This can be seen most acutely in relation to intellectual property valuation in Asia, especially East Asia, which often differs from the West’s perception of valuation.The book is written by experts in intellectual property, valuation and innovation who are mainly practitioners covering innovators, marketers, accountants, social innovators and business and management academics.The breadth and practitioner background of most of the contributors make the material relevant to those involved in valuation, economics, business, management, accounting and finance, law and maritime insurance.This book takes an interdisciplinary approach that cross-cuts all the above-mentioned disciplines and takes the understanding of intellectual property valuation to a new level.

Fantasy or imagination?
Fantasy and imagination are closely related but not the same. Imagination is the ability to form mental images, ideas, and sensations that are not present in reality, while fantasy is a genre of fiction that often involves magical or supernatural elements. Imagination is a fundamental cognitive process that allows us to think creatively and problem-solve, while fantasy is a specific type of creative expression. Both are important for creativity and innovation, but they serve different purposes in our cognitive and emotional lives.

What is the difference between creativity and imagination?
Creativity is the ability to bring something new into existence, whether it be a product, idea, or solution. It involves the process of generating original and valuable ideas. Imagination, on the other hand, is the ability to form mental images, sensations, and concepts that are not present in one's immediate surroundings. It is the capacity to visualize and conceptualize things that may not exist in reality. In essence, creativity involves the application of imagination to produce something tangible and valuable.

How can one develop visual imagination or creativity?
One can develop visual imagination or creativity by practicing observation and mindfulness. Taking the time to really see and appreciate the world around us can help to develop a deeper understanding of visual elements and how they can be used creatively. Engaging in activities such as drawing, painting, photography, or even just doodling can also help to exercise and expand visual imagination. Additionally, seeking inspiration from other artists and exposing oneself to a variety of visual stimuli can help to spark creativity and imagination.

How does rainwater from the neighboring property reach our property?
Rainwater from the neighboring property reaches our property through natural drainage patterns and the force of gravity. It may flow downhill or through the soil, eventually reaching our property boundaries. The topography of the land, such as slopes or depressions, can also influence the direction and flow of rainwater towards our property. Additionally, man-made structures like gutters, downspouts, or drainage systems on the neighboring property can direct rainwater towards our property.

Property
Few political ideas are as divisive and controversial for some – and yet taken for granted by others – as the ownership of private property.For its defenders, private ownership is a fundamental right that protects individual freedom and ensures wider economic benefits for the community; for its critics, by contrast, property is institutionalised theft, responsible for lamentable levels of inequality and poverty. In this book, Robert Lamb explores philosophical arguments deployed to conceptualise, justify, and criticise private property ownership.He introduces the radical case against property advanced by anarchist and socialist writers, before analysing some of the most important and influential arguments in its favour.Lamb explains and assesses the various defences of property rights advanced by Locke, Hume, Hegel, J.S. Mill, and Nozick. He then shows how theorists such as John Rawls and his followers encourage us to rethink the very nature of ownership in a democratic society. This engaging synthesis of historical and contemporary theories of property will be essential reading for students and scholars of political philosophy.

Should property owners have more responsibility for their own property?
Yes, property owners should have more responsibility for their own property. They should be accountable for maintaining their property to ensure the safety and well-being of others.

Is the property tax levied twice when a property is divided?
No, the property tax is not levied twice when a property is divided. When a property is divided, the total property tax is apportioned based on the new assessed value of each divided parcel. Each new parcel will then be responsible for paying its own portion of the property tax based on its individual assessed value. Therefore, the property tax is not doubled, but rather divided among the new parcels based on their respective values.
-
Does the party not pay property tax for the property community?
Yes, the party does not pay property tax for the property community. This is because property tax is typically paid by the individual property owners within the community, rather than by the community as a whole. Each property owner is responsible for paying property tax based on the assessed value of their individual property. Therefore, the party as a whole does not pay property tax for the entire community.
