中文摘要 專利侵權之救濟途徑，除罪化已是世界趨勢，我國專利法歷經兩次修法全面除罪化後，迄今已逾十年。侵害專利是否構成犯罪，各國立法例固有不同之規範。惟科技發展日新月異，專利技術之占有成為產業獲利之決勝關鍵，專利權之獨占制度在經濟上具有極大之投資誘因，影響企業資金挹注之意願。從而，專利侵害問題亦由商業及法律問題，進一步演變成國際之政治問題，甚而影響一國之立法政策。專利侵權行為除罪化後，專利權人已不能以刑事訴訟手段尋求救濟；惟傳統上訴訟進行曠日費時，往往當事人贏了官司，卻已間接公開其商業上機密，造成無法回復之損害。專利制度是產業導向之一種政策工具，專利權獨占是經濟上極大之投資誘因，影響企業資金挹注之意願，決定資源流動的趨勢。故而，專利與產業科技、國家經濟發展實有密切的關聯。配合該重要性，更需有健全的專利保護制度，俾鼓勵發明創作，方對我國企業未來創新研發之誘因與知識經濟之發展有實質助益。 關鍵詞: 專利侵權, 民事救濟, 刑責, 除罪化, 仲裁
