Integrating Intellectual Property Rights and Development Policy: Report of the Commission on Intellectual Property Rights
From p.9 (PDF file): "The Commission’s fundamental task was to consider whether the rules and institutions of IP protection as they have evolved to date can contribute to development and the reduction of poverty in developing countries. We believe that IP protection of some kind is appropriate at some stage for developing countries. The system provides incentives to invent and develop new technologies that may benefit society."
