Knowledge, Patents, Power : The Making of a Patent System in the Dutch Republic
Overview
In Knowledge, Patents, Power, Marius Buning tells the complex story of how the emergence of a Dutch patent regime is related to wider issues concerning governmental control and innovation. Buning analyses the institutional framework in which "innovative knowledge" could develop in the Dutch Republic from a variety of perspectives. This is not only a comprehensive study of patent law and its administrative and legal framework during the first four decades of the Dutch republic, it also opens up new perspectives on a wide range of issues in cultural and political history-- from truth claims in early modern science to issues concerning mercantilism and Dutch seventeenth-century processes of state formation.
