Abstract: In the context of great power competition, the 337 investigation increases the risk of intellectual property friction between China and America. This paper discusses the nature of the 337 investigation from the perspective of “America first”, analyzes the current situation of the China-related 337 investigations and predicts the trend of the investigation based on the discussion of the Sino-US “asymmetric” competition pattern as well as relevant policies of the United States. According to this paper, the number of China-related 337 investigations will still rank the first in the world, while the future areas need to be focused are 5G communication, artificial intelligence and biomedicine. Finally, this paper puts forward corresponding policy suggestions, aiming to help enterprises accomplish the “going global” strategy successfully and enhance the international discourse power of China in the intellectual property protection system.

摘要： 在“大国竞争”背景下，337调查扩大了中美两国在知识产权领域的摩擦风险。本文从“美国优先”的视角讨论了337调查“保护美国国内产业”的本质，分析了“中国崛起”下的涉华337调查现状，并结合对中美“不对称”竞争格局以及美国相关政策的探讨，预测未来337调查的发展趋势。本文认为，涉华337调查数量仍会居于全球首位，而未来需要重点关注的领域则是5G通信、人工智能和生物医药等行业。最后，本文从政府层面提出相应的政策建议，旨在帮助企业顺利完成“走出去”战略和提升我国在国际知识产权保护体系中的话语权。
