Download or read book Choosing the Future written by Karen Mossberger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents the first conclusive evidence that broadband adoption in the population is linked to economic growth and prosperity, in counties and metros, whether urban, suburban or rural. Public policy, including the National Broadband Plan (FCC 2010), has been premised on the expectation that broadband use fosters economic opportunity for communities. The quote from Commissioner Rosenworcel at the beginning of this chapter demonstrates the significance of broadband for public policy, beyond a utility to be regulated. Until now, however, evidence for assumptions about the benefits of broadband adoption has been lacking because of a scarcity of reliable data over time. Measuring broadband subscriptions rather than deployment is critical because of what has been called the "subscription gap" (Tomer and Shivaram 2017) - the difference between broadband availability and the reality of those who can afford it and have the ability to use it. In this chapter we review the findings throughout the book, discuss place-based barriers in communities, and implications for public policy"--
Download or read book Build written by Sadek Wahba and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Calling for a reimagining of how the United States manages its infrastructure, Build takes readers on a revealing tour behind the scenes of the successes and debacles of key projects-from roads, bridges, and ports to water systems and airports-to show what works, why we've failed in recent decades to invest in infrastructure, and why the private sector can help the United States once again lead in infrastructure development. In a series of colorful, rarely told cases, economist and infrastructure investor Sadek Wahba walks the reader through the little-known processes-including the ins-and-outs of infrastructure management, ownership and regulation-that define American infrastructure. He examines the private origins of US infrastructure and the federally funded megaprojects that followed the New Deal-and investigates the role that the private sector can and should play in infrastructure. By drawing comparisons with systems in the UK, France, India and China, Wahba shows that while privatization and public-private partnerships cannot solve all infrastructure challenges, they can open up major and large-scale infrastructure advancements. Build will appeal to anyone interested in US finance, politics and domestic policy, the role of the federal government, tax policy, municipal government, green technology, or stories about American cities"--
