| | Intellectual property - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | However, there is ongoing debate as to whether IP laws truly operate to confer the stated public benefits, and whether the protection they are said to provide is appropriate in the context of innovation derived from such things as traditional knowledge and folklore, and patents for software and business methods. |  | | Some consider that the expansion of intellectual property laws upsets the balance between encouraging and facilitating creativity and innovation, and the dissemination of new ideas and creations into the public domain for the common good. |  | | Another issue is that if intellectual property exists there must be a parallel concept of intellectual capital - capital (economics) being the property that permits more property to be created. |

| | CRS Report: 95-200 - The Property Rights Issue - NLE |
 | | Opposed to property rights legislation are a wide array of groups that stress the societal benefits deriving from government's ability to regulate private property use, and regard such legislation as hindering that ability. |  | | By contrast, the property rights issue is much broader, embracing a lengthy agenda of proposals by which government interferences with private land use might be minimized, or might trigger compensation beyond what is constitutionally required. |  | | To many property rights activists, government elimination of a modest percentage of land value is just as much a taking as are greater interferences. |

| | Property Rights, by Armen A. Alchian: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty |
 | | A property right is the exclusive authority to determine how a resource is used, whether that resource is owned by government or by individuals. |  | | Thus, the three basic elements of private property are (1) exclusivity of rights to the choice of use of a resource, (2) exclusivity of rights to the services of a resource, and (3) rights to exchange the resource at mutually agreeable terms. |  | | The cost of establishing private property rightsso that I could pay you a mutually agreeable price to pollute your airmay be too expensive. |

| | Securing Property Rights |
 | | Owners of land, corporate shares and even intellectual property are loath to invest in the upkeep and improvement of their property if their rights as owners are insecure. |  | | Democracy has a lot to do with establishing a good system of property rights in the sense that it's not really possible to build such a system unless you know how people think about their relationship to objects, land and assets at the grassroots level. |  | | One of the main reasons is that generally most of these companies have not yet seen the connecting links between property rights and their businesses nor where the cash collection points are. |

| | A Positive Account of Property Rights |
 | | After agreeing on our mutual property rights, you offer me a bushel of apples to cut down a tree that is shading your orchard. |  | | Even if one accepts an account, such as that of Locke, of how initial acquisition might justly have occurred, that account provides little justification for the existing pattern of property rights, given the high probability that any piece of property has been unjustly seized at least once since it was first cleared. |  | | In a world of no transaction costs, any initial allocation of property rights is efficient. |

| | Property Rights |
 | | If the uncertainties and the vigilance required of property ownership in Costa Rica are not disagreeable to a foreign investor, he/she must still be prepared for the costs associated with maintaining legal ownership of the property. |  | | Such a discrepancy is due to the fact that when a transfer of property takes place, the transaction may not have been recorded on the catastro, since a change in one does not automatically require a change in the other (McMerty, 1995). |  | | Great pains should be taken to secure a reliable caretaker, as well as another individual who can monitor the caretaker; it is not unconunon for a caretaker to squat on the land that he is paid to protect. |

| | FRB: Speech, Greenspan--Intellectual property rights--February 27, 2004 |
 | | Whether we protect intellectual property as an inalienable right or as a privilege vouchsafed by the sovereign, such protection inevitably entails making some choices that have crucial implications for the balance we strike between the interests of those who innovate and those who would benefit from innovation. |  | | In the case of an idea, however, we have chosen to strike a different balance in recognition of the chaos that could follow from having to trace back all the thoughts implicit in one's current undertaking and pay a royalty to the originator of each one. |  | | It is imperative to find the appropriate intellectual property regime for each. |

 | | Other important issues of concern are removal of millions of dollars of property from local tax rolls when purchased by tribal governments and the protection of private property and water rights for landowners and local governments. |  | | Local governments are seeing their tax base eroded as tribes purchase more and more land and move it off the tax rolls, increasing taxes for everyone else. |  | | The mission of the new One Nation United organization will continue to be to positively impact local, state, and federal government policies relating to protection of private property rights, tax fairness, and environmental regulatory certainty. |

| | Jefferson on Politics & Government: Property Rights |
 | | It is also for these reasons that the government's power to tax property is placed in those representatives most frequently and directly responsible to the people, since it is the people themselves who must pay those taxes out of their holdings of property. |  | | If for the encouragement of industry we allow it to be appropriated, we must take care that other employment be provided to those excluded from the appropriation. |  | | "[If government have] a right of demanding ad libitum and of taxing us themselves to the full amount of their demand if we do not comply with it, [this would leave] us without anything we can call property." --Thomas Jefferson: Reply to Lord North, 1775. |
