摘要
如果说上一次《专利法》的修改是为了符合WTO的要求。那麽这次《专利法》修改的动力则来源于建设创新型国家这个目标。所以,评价这次修法的成果应该以是否更有利於创新为标准。专利法的意义也正在於通过授予独占权来鼓励社会投入创新从而增加社会财富。
If the last amendment to the Patent Law^1 was to bring it into compliance with the WTO requirement, the upcoming amendment to the Patent Law is motivated by China's desire to build an innovation-oriented nation. The identified legislative goal provides a valuable benchmark against which the merits of the ongoing amendment can be measured, i.e., whether and to what extent the new Patent Law encourages and promotes innovation. After all, the key value of Patent Law lies exactly in granting exclusive right to societal members to encourage investment of resources and energy in innovation that results in increase in social wealth.
