Access to knowledge economy, as well as progress in this area, is continuously assessed by the expansion of the Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) in any economy. Development and enforcement of IPRs is likely to protect rights to innovation and creation and contribute thus to further production and use of knowledge. This chapter describes how Arab countries protect the rights to innovation through patents, copyrights, geographical indications, models, labels, and other distinctive measures. Issues related to lack of enforcement and limited implementation of IPRs are not absent from Arab economies.

Relative Profitability

AbstractThis essay explores the trade-off between strong and weak intellectual property rights inside firms with reference to the importance of job termination. The probability of job termination has an effect on the relative profitability of different intellectual property rights regimes. Weak intellectual property rights may make it more attractive for skilled workers to join the firm, which will increase its profits while employing workers. However, when a job match is terminated the firm is left with the ownership of intellectual property only under a strong intellectual property rights regime. Based on the institutional complementarities approach we develop a simple model that analyses this trade-off, in which multiple organisational equilibria exist. We show that when intellectual property rights are taken into account, expectations such as increase in the skill and knowledge content of work are not inevitable in the knowledge economy.

IG is a separate Intellectual Property Rights which is different from other Intellectual Property Rights because IG can only be registered as a joint / communal right. Geographical Indications are regulated in one Act with a mark, namely Law Number 20 Year 2016 concerning Trademarks and Geographical Indications. IG is a communal right so that in the implementation of its protection it can cause various problems, both in terms of product marketing by external parties and by the IG owner community it self. In terms of supervision it can also cause problems because of the connection with the difficulty of conducting supervision because it involves many individuals with different interests and characters. IG arrangements must be sufficient to support local economic development efforts and even be able to compete globally.
