This week on IPWatchdog Unleashed, we speak with James Edwards, a property rights advocate, lobbyist and now also the author of the forthcoming book To Invent Is Divine: Creativity and Ownership, which addresses the disconnect between the attributes of creativity and ownership and human innovation, technological progress, and practical benefits from human creativity and ownership in combination. “There’s something much larger and more fundamental about the the existence of creativity and the inherent ownership that normatively connects with each other,” Edwards explains. “Ownership has to come with creativity. If you’ve got creative ability but you don’t have ownership of what you make that doesn’t work.”
