A nation's economy is more than its markets, tastes, technologies and property rights.

A modern economy is marked by the feasibility of endogenous change: Modernization brings myriad arrangements from expanded property rights to company law and financial institutions.

I am a strong believer that intellectual property rights need to be protected.

The dichotomy between personal liberties and property rights is a false one. Property does not have rights. People have rights.

If China wants to be a constructive, active player in the world economy, it's got to respect intellectual property rights or it makes it pretty impossible to do business with them.

The whole notion of land property rights in the Arab world is different from that in Europe.
