This special issue seeks to deepen our understanding of the historical role of patent systems in fostering innovation and economic growth. Patents have been critical in shaping economic activity, influencing industrial policy, and promoting technological progress. However, the complexities surrounding patent systems—both in terms of their institutional development and their economic impact—warrant further scholarly exploration. This special issue aims to address such complexities and provide a comprehensive view of how patent systems have evolved and interacted with economic growth.
The focus on patent history will contribute to ongoing debates on the relationship between legal institutions and economic outcomes, offering new insights into how patents have functioned as both enablers and barriers to innovation throughout history.
