Calculative Patents

12:00PM - 01:30PM Washington College of Law

Patents are legal delinquents. Drawing on insights from the sociology of markets, I argue that patents are surreptitiously performing functions familiar from the grocery store, the vegetable stand, or the barbershop. I suggest that patents are calculative, not in the mathematical sense, but in the sociological sense of structuring and facilitating market relations.

Join Professor Dan L. Burk for a discussion about Calculative Patents.

This presentation is part of the IP Speaker Series organized and hosted by PIJIP.

Co-sponsored by the Family Law Society and ADRHS. Collaborative Law is another form of an alternate dispute resolution model where parties each retain collaboratively trained attorneys to represent them to resolve legal disputes in a cooperative and transparent manner with the goal to reach settlement without going to court. Collaborative Law is being used increasingly in both family law and non-family law cases!
