Abstract
- The article presents the authors' perspective on the effect of adopting a law styled after the U.S. Bayh-Dole (BD) Act of 1980, which promotes the patenting of publicly funded research, in developing countries. They contends that it is unclear that the positive impacts of BD in the U.S. would arise in developing countries due to the absent multiagency federal pluralism, the practically oriented universities and other features of the U.S. research system in these countries.
