Impact of Developmental Aspirations on Taxation of Intellectual Property
註釋In today's world, the thrust to development is seen not only as a policy perspective but also as a national goal. 'Intellectual property' has come out as a critical variant of technology and the growth process ensuing thereon. Consistently being cited as an impetus to economic development and growth, intellectual property (both as a concept and originator of products) has come to influence not only the needs of the changing times but also has been a significant factor in fulfilling such needs. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the legal treatment meted out to intellectual property and its promotion thereby, has been a priority item on the agenda of the policy makers.The present study seeks to identify and assimilate the provisions in tax laws of selected developing countries in an attempt to analyze the role that the aspirations to development (particularly economic development, as we shall see) play on the domestic tax systems, with particular emphasis on the tax policy for intellectual property.The chapterization is as under;1.
