Miejsce Japonii we współczesnym obrocie licencyjnym

Abstract

Japan, the second biggest economic power in the capitalist world , oftentimes arouses interest and even admiration . The country owes its successes mainly to rational activity ensuing from a wise policy pursued by the state supported by tremendous laboriousness of the entire society . An example of such activity worth imitating is Japan 's license policy .

This article is devoted to analysis of the main aspects of Japan 's licensees policy . Its main idea boils down to an attempt at proving a statement that an appropriate license policy may re present an Important factor promoting economic growth. Japan , owing to its reasonable approach to all problems connected with purchase of licenses , elaborated what might be in fact called "model solutions" allowing for optimal utilization of purchased licenses . Despite the fact that the country has already attained a high rank in the world economy, it continues to follow carefully scientific - technical progress in all countries and purchase licenses guaranteeing progress and maintenance or consolidation of its position . Owing to its ability of deriving maximum benefits from the above advantages. Japan - after a short "imitative " period managed to pass rapidly from the exclusively buyer 's position to that of active participation in the world trade in licenses effectively selling it s own scientific - technical solutions and know-how. Against this background, a closer insight in to Japanese experience and example may be highly instructive and useful for Poland.
