Technology Licensing contract are agreements which pave the way
for transferring and diffusing of technology. These agreements usually
contain restrictive clauses which pose competitive concerns. These
restrictive clauses are divided into three categories, one of which is
hardcore or per se illegal ones. Having briefly considering the position
of these restrictive clauses within the other restrictive practices, this
article has mainly the intention to analyze the subject in the light of
American and EU laws as well as the international instruments. In
doing this job, this paper will also have special reference to the
experiences of some Asian countries which by adopting an efficient
competition policy have acquired substantial successes in this field.
Upon the results of this analysis, this article, showing the surprising
deficiencies and obscurities of the Iranian law and challenging its
competition policies, will try to provide appropriate guidance and
suggestions for legislative bodies, competition council and judicial
courts
