Methodology: this applied research tried to analyze data as scientometric methods. A total number of 678 articles published during 2000-2010 were extracting from ISI and saved as text files on personal computer. The Records were analyzed by Microsoft  Excel, ISI.exe and  HisitCite. Findings: the average manual growth rate during the period for publication of intellectual property rights (IPR) in the ISI is 8/7 percent. The scientific publication of IPR was produced with the participation of 49 countries and in 7 languages. The United State ranked the first with 219 records and 95/5% of the articles were in English. 512 academic and scientific institutions were collaborated in the production of this document.

Conclusion: 59% of the total production have published by the first five countries. Authors' collaboration coefficient (cc) is 0.37 that implies a low co-authorship in this field. The main cluster of IPR shows the intellectual property rights has a special place in the international economics
