Abstract
This paper contains two essays that were presented at the WIPO Arab Regional Symposium on the Economic Importance of Intellectual Property Rights, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman, February 22-24, 1999. Because of their interrelatedness, they are printed together as one working paper. I thank participants at the conference and Eddy Szirmai for useful comments and discussions.
