英文文献：Harmonizing IPRs on Software Piracy: Empirics of Trajectories in Africa-协调软件盗版的知识产权:非洲发展轨迹的经验
英文文献作者：Asongu Simplice
英文文献摘要：
In the current efforts of harmonizing the standards and enforcement of IPRs protection worldwide, this paper explores software piracy trajectories and dynamics in Africa. Using a battery of estimation techniques that ignore as well as integrate short-run disturbances in time-dynamic fashion, we answer the big questions policy makers are most likely to ask before harmonizing IPRs regimes in the battle against software piracy. Three main findings are established. (1) African countries with low software piracy rates are catching-up their counterparts with higher rates; implying despite existing divergent IPRs systems, convergence in piracy rate could be a genuine standard-setting platform. (2) Legal origins do not play a very significant role in the convergence process. (3) A genuine timeframe for standardizing IPRs laws in the fight against piracy is most likely between a horizon of 4 to 8 years. In other words, full (100%) convergence within the specified horizon will mean the enforcements of IPRs regimes without distinction of nationality and locality. Policy implications and caveats are discussed.
在当前协调全球知识产权保护标准和执行的努力中，本文探索了非洲软件盗版的轨迹和动态。使用一组评估技术，忽略和整合短期干扰在时间动态的方式，我们回答了政策制定者在协调知识产权制度在打击软件盗版的战斗之前最有可能问的大问题。得出了三个主要结论。(1)软件盗版率较低的非洲国家正在追赶盗版率较高的国家;这意味着，尽管现有的知识产权制度存在分歧，但盗版率的趋同可能成为一个真正的标准制定平台。(2)法律渊源在趋同过程中并不是很重要。(3)在打击盗版方面，使知识产权法律标准化的真正时间框架最有可能在4至8年之间。换句话说，在指定范围内完全(100%)趋同，将意味着知识产权制度的执行不分国籍和地区。讨论了政策含义和注意事项。
