392 the high degree of risX aversion that affects decisions to invest in the dissemination of literary and artistic productions.** I am not one of those who underestimates either the difficulties of prospecting the public's taste*^ or the degree of risk aversion that publishers must overcome. Nor do I believe that the level of investment in cultural industries would remain adequate if publishers were forced to depend solely on natxiral lead time." To the contrary, my studies make strenuous efforts to demonstrate that a contraction of natural lead time, with its attendant risks of market failure,**^ afflicts all industries engaged in information technologies and other cutting-edge, innovative pursuits. As a result, I believe new types of intellectual property rights — rooted in liability principles — will be needed to cope with subpatentable innovation of all kinds in the twenty-first century." •• See, e.g..
