Law/Patents - History / 17th-C patents
French term or phrase: dérogations à des contraintes corporatives
Les patents ont été utilisés de manière intensive au XVIIe siècle, mobilisant à la fois des hommes de Cour et des groupes d’intérêts locaux, pour des cultures nouvelles, l’exploitation de ressources naturelles, l’installation d’aménagements hydrauliques, la mise en œuvre de techniques non encore usitées en Angleterre ou des dérogations à des contraintes corporatives.

The sentence lists examples of things people took out patents for in 17th-century England. I'm wondering about 'as a means of side-stepping corporate constraints' for 'des dérogations à des contraintes corporatives' – is this the right idea?

disagree  Daryo: "17th-century England" => it's another kind of corporation + waiver is not quite right
