Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of stamp duties on patents for inventions in England from the 18th century to their abolition in the mid-20th century. By analysing original archival research, the author sets out the origins of stamp duties as a means of raising government revenue and their impact on the development of the patent system. The book argues that the introduction of stamp duties in 1711 was a major turning point, transforming the patent system from one based on fees to one based on taxes. The author also examines the role of stamp duties in the development of the patent system in Scotland and Ireland, where separate systems of patent law operated. The book concludes that stamp duties had a significant impact on the development of the patent system in England, and that their abolition in 1949 was a major step forward in the promotion of innovation and economic growth.
