• Title:
  On Type Creation and Ownership
• Creator:
  Gamrot, Wojciech
• Description:
  The subject matter of intellectual property rights is an intangible entity. It is identified as animmaterial type which may be embodied in multiple material tokens. A prominent acquisitionprinciple postulates that creators are entitled to a property right in their creation. Combinedwith a widespread belief that innovators and artists bring to existence not only tokens, but alsotypes, this leads to the acceptance of property rights in these types. In order to avoid conflicts ofclaims and deadlocks under propertarian framework, the acquisition of equivalent types must berestricted. This may be achieved by assuming that types are unique. However, when the uniquenessproperty holds, the belief in type creation is untenable. If unique immaterial types exist atall, then they do so regardless of any human activities and may eventually be identified or recognized,but not created. Hence the creationist principle cannot justify owning them.
