==Abstract==

In this Chapter I hope to accomplish three things: briefly summarize trends in the economic theory of intellectual property rights (IPRs); describe some ideas of my own on the emergence of IPR exchange institutions, and describe how an emphasis on institutions fits into existing theory; and ground these issues in a discussion of collective IPR licensing, in particular, patent pools. I begin with a discussion of how transactions have crept into IP theory, and then turn to an examination of actual institutions that have evolved out of the need for various industries to conduct a large volume of IPR transactions.
