Abstract

This article explores the complex relationship between patent law and sustainable development, highlighting the potential for patents to both promote and hinder progress towards a more sustainable future. The study examines how patent law can incentivize innovation and investment in sustainable technologies, while also considering how patents can create barriers to access and dissemination of these technologies. The article also discusses the role of patent law in promoting global cooperation and technology transfer, as well as the potential for alternative approaches to intellectual property protection to better support sustainable development goals. Through a comprehensive analysis of the literature and real-world case studies, the article provides a nuanced understanding of how patent law can impact sustainable development and offers recommendations for policymakers seeking to balance the interests of inventors and society as a whole.
