The original purpose of intellectual property laws is to protect the rights of authors and inventors by the grant of limited term statutory monopolies. Two main rationales underpin these monopolies: (a) the need to reward creators for the time and effort expended in materialising their personality, and thereby (b) enriching the society and improving its wellbeing.
