The impact of intellectual property protection on China's foreign trade in high-tech industries
Description
This thesis meticulously explores the intricate relationship between intellectual property protection (IPP) and China's foreign trade in high - tech industries. It commences with a comprehensive elucidation of fundamental concepts, including intellectual property rights, IPP, and the classification of high - tech products in China. A thorough literature review is then conducted, covering the impacts of IPP on high - tech product import and export trade from various academic perspectives, while also presenting theoretical frameworks such as the Product Life Cycle Theory, Technology Gap Theory, and Comparative Advantage Theory. Subsequently, an in - depth analysis of the current status of China's high - tech industry and IPP is carried out. By constructing an empirical model with carefully selected core indicators and control variables, this study empirically examines the impact of IPP on China's high - tech product imports and exports. The empirical results reveal differential impacts across various product categories. Finally, based on the research findings, targeted policy recommendations are proposed. These include optimizing the IPP legislative system to better align with international standards and domestic conditions, and deepening the reform of the law enforcement and judicial system for IPP to enhance its effectiveness. The ultimate goal of this research is to provide valuable insights and practical guidance for promoting the healthy development of China's high - tech industries in the international trade context.
