In this paper; a theoretical relationship between IPRs and import is tried to be find. For this, A data set was created. This data set includes 20 countries data between 1996-2012 dates. Using that data in panel data analysis, the relationship between IPRs and Import will be found. In this study; indicator of IPRs is patent applications. There is an assumption that is patent applications have a meaningful effect on import. In this context, objective of the study; Inspection of a cointegration relationship between foreign patent applications and import of developing countries. Results of analysis tell us there are not any cointegreation between import and IPRs for developing countries. Neither long nor short run relationship could be found

Anahtar Kelimeler

Import, IPRs, Patent, Panel Unit Root, Panel Cointegration

GELİŞMEKTE OLAN ÜLKELERDE FİKRİ VE SINAİ MÜLKİYET HAKLARI FSMH VE İTHALAT: BİR PANEL VERİ ANALİZİ

Öz

Bu çalışmada; gelişmekte olan 20 ülke için 1996-2012 dönemini kapsayan bir veri seti oluşturularak ve panel veri analizi yöntemi kullanılarak FSMH ile ithalat arasındaki teorik ilişkinin olup olmadığı tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada FSMH’ın göstergesi olarak patent başvuruları kullanılmıştır. Patent başvurularının ithalat üzerinde daha anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olacağı varsayılmıştır. Bu kapsamda çalışmanın amacı; yabancılara ait patent faaliyetleri ile gelişmekte olan ülkelerin ithalatları arasında herhangi bir eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin olup olmadığının tespit edilmeye çalışılmasıdır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda, gelişmekte olan ülkelerde kısa ve uzun dönemde, patent başvuruları ile ithalat arasında ne pozitif ne de negatif yönlü istatistikî olarak anlamlı bir eşbütünleşme ilişkisi tespit edilememiştir.
