Can Real Intellectual Property Protection Spur Technical Progress?

摘要：

We use total factor productivity as a substitute index of technical progress and analyze the impact on it from intellectual property protection and local administration monopoly. The empirical study shows that an increase in real intellectual property protection promotes remarkably local technical progress and a decrease in local administrative monopoly facilitates resource allocation which promotes local technical progress. Because the most of current R&D expenditure in China are imitative innovation, it is more likely to be reflected in lower economical significance between local R&D and the total factor productivity.
