摘要
We distinguish between two forms of appropriability: primary appropriability-effectiveness in exploiting inventions as problem-solving mechanisms and capturing a share of their profits-and generative appropriability-effectiveness in exploiting inventions as concepts and capturing a share of the future inventions they spawn. Recognizing that generative appropriability has two components-cumulative invention and preclusion of others-we identify its key managerially manipulable determinants and discuss the implications of the construct for the literature on the resource-based view and the literature on organizational learning.
