Intellectual Property Law

A Blog Symposium, Hosted by Truth on the Market

By Lee.Gesmer

Take a book: Innovation for the 21st Century, Harnessing the Power of Intellectual Property and Antitrust Law, by Michael A. Carrier.  Invite several IP and antitrust luminaries to comment on the book.  The result: a  “Blog Symposium”on the book organized by Truth on the Market.  The Symposium is described as follows:

The format will be as follows. Today we?ll have posts from Crane, Manne, Weiser, and Wright on aspects of Innovation for the 21^st Century which focus on competition policy. Tomorrow, Professors Frischmann, Kieff, and Crouch will focus on the intellectual property related proposals. Professor Carrier will have the opportunity to respond to the posts Tuesday evening or Wednesday. And of course, we hope that both participants and our normal group of high quality commentators will find some time to mix it up in the comments. The participants have been given broad leeway to discuss general themes in Carrier?s work or hone in on specific policy proposals.

With the formalities out of the way, you can expect the first of Monday?s posts to start in the early morning and then we?ll add throughout the day with posts from Crane, Manne, and Wright.
