Abstract

This study’s main motivation is to review the trade literature on the implications that trade-integrated countries may adopt different geographical boundaries for the exhaustion of intellectual property rights (national, international, regional), and to discuss potential gaps in the literature. The main argument is that a policy change in such geographical boundaries will have important implications on (i) retailers’ parallel trade decisions, (ii) manufacturers’ strategic market behavior and foreign direct investment decisions, and (iii) countries’ welfare (consumer surplus and firms’ profits). Also this study would like to introduce this topic to the Turkish economics literature.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın temel motivasyonu, uluslararası ticaret yoluyla birbirine entegre olmuş ülkelerde, fikri mülkiyet haklarının tükenmesi ilkesinin farklı coğrafi sınırlara (ülkesel, uluslararası veya bölgesel) tâbi olmasını uluslararası ticaret yazını çerçevesinde ele almak ve ilgili yazındaki eksiklikleri tartışmaktır. Çalışmanın temel argümanı, hakların tükenmesi ilkesinin coğrafi sınırlarında gerçekleştirilecek bir politika değişikliğinin (i) perakendecilerin paralel ticaret kararları, (ii) üretici firmaların stratejik piyasa davranışları ve doğrudan yabancı yatırım kararları ile (iii) ülkelerin sosyal refahı (tüketici artığı ve firma kârları) üzerinde önemli etkiler yaratacağıdır. Ayrıca bu çalışma özellikle kuramsal modeller ve analitik çözümlemeler çerçevesinde Türkçe iktisat yazınında henüz yer almayan bu konuya dikkat çekmeyi amaçlar.
