Should patent protection be extended to all developing countries?

Deardorff, Alan V.

Should patent protection be extended to all developing countries? - 1990

Discusses the welfare effects of extending patent protection to parts of the world where it is not now provided. Argues that extending patent protecton to all countries of the world is unlikely to be globally optimal. Suggests that at least the poorest of developing countries should be exempted for this process.
