英文文献摘要：
In the current efforts towards harmonizing IPRs regimes in the African continent, this paper provides answers to four key questions relevant in the policy decision making processes. After empirically examining the questions, the following findings are established. (1) In comparison to common law countries, civil law countries inherently have a significant autonomous rate of software piracy; consistent with the ‘law and property rights’ theory. (2) But for IPRs laws, the other IP protection channels (WIPO treaties, Main IP law and multilateral treaties) reduce the incidence of software piracy. (3) In both short-run and long-term, IPRs protection channels in civil law countries appear to mitigate software piracy more than in common law countries. (4) Formal institutions are instrumental in the fight against software piracy through IPRs protection channels.
在目前协调非洲大陆知识产权制度的努力中，本文为与政策决策过程相关的四个关键问题提供了答案。在对这些问题进行实证研究后，我们得出以下结论。(1)与英美法系国家相比，大陆法系国家固有地具有明显的软件盗版自主率;符合“法律与产权”理论。(2)但就知识产权法律而言，其他知识产权保护渠道(WIPO条约、主要知识产权法律和多边条约)降低了软件盗版的发生率。(3)从短期和长期来看，大陆法系国家的知识产权保护渠道似乎比英美法系国家更能缓解软件盗版问题。(4)正规机构透过知识产权保护渠道打击盗版软件。
