Intangible assets rights protection and competition protection

Summary/Abstract: The contríbution deals with the relation of intellectual property rights to competition law. Sup­port of innovation is based on creating an innova­tor's monopoly which can harm economic competiti­on. Knowledge-based high-tech economy calls for such a monopolization. Some basic differences between in­tellectual property and real property and some more frequent kinds of misusing intellectual property rights are introduced. The author joins the opinion that the conflict between protection of innovations and protec­tion of competition is to be solved by providing legal monopoly power, but only within the defined limited scope of the right.
