摘要
诺思将专利制度作为推动英国工业革命发生的直接原因的观点存在严重的逻辑缺陷。如果没有工业革命创造出社会交易规模爆炸性增长、内生出大量创新机会、培育的大量企业家与专利制度的良好互动,英国的专利制度绩效将与法国、威尼斯等一样处于低效状态。因此,是工业革命与专利制度双向循环共同推动了发明或技术创新活动,但诺思却将英国工业革命以来的发明或技术创新成果片面地归功于专利制度,从而对工业革命之谜做出错误解释。
North’s view that the patent system was the direct cause of the british Industrial Revolution has serious logical defects.If the Industrial Revolution did not create explosive growth in the scale of social transactions,endogenous innovative opportunities,foster a large number of entrepreneurs and patent system interaction,the performance of british patent system would be as inefficient as that of France and Venice.Therefore,it is the two-way cycle of Industrial Revolution and patent system that promotes invention or technological innovation.However,North unilaterally attributes the achievements of invention or technological innovation since the british Industrial Revolution to the patent system,thus misinterpreting the mystery of the Industrial Revolution.
