Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six Years that Shook the World provides a short, but deep history of the internet, telecom and optical market revolutions that has initiated an evolution from a global push economic structure to an emerging pull economic model. The internet and telecom boom of the 1990s and its crash post-2000 were the product of a cycle of regulation and deregulation that will in time result in the change of the regulatory controls on the communication industry of America. The internet is the lowest-cost and most powerful economic transaction medium available to corporations with which an economic transaction can be completed. It provides global reach assuming network and computing infrastructure is present. The value of the internet as a transaction medium becomes apparent when it is put into the context of the chain of commerce. The internet provides the end-user, whether consumer or businesses, with constant availability of information and the continuous ability to execute transactions. Transactions can be any computing event that triggers an exchange of value for support of the transaction. Lowering the cost of transactions and improving productivity by leveraging the internet will drive economic development. Telecom deregulation in 1934 and 1996 released inherent monopolized market value, which was the determining factor for significant capital investments and produced the genesis proofs of a pull economy - but provided an insufficient amount of infrastructure to achieve the revolutionary vision of a new economy and failed to ensure American leadership in a global economy. Investment in the communication infrastructure is mandatory to ensure the United States is the leader in the emerging pull economic structure. Six Years that Shook the World describes the cycle of innovation and deregulation in the context of the telecom and networking industries. It argues that the communications industry that was invented in America is now being led by multi-national companies who are located in other nation-states. America is on the verge of forever relinquishing our leadership in networking and telecommunications, because we are failing to ensure the establishment of a real and complete technology infrastructure for a new economy in the United States.
Download or read book Internationalizing the Internet written by Byung-Keun Kim and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compelling book focuses on the global formation of the Internet system. It contests the common belief that the Internet's adoption was inevitable and instead examines the social and economic processes that allowed to it to prevail over competing standards and methods for achieving a global information infrastructure. The author demonstrates how the current Internet system was not the only possible choice, nor the best data network in terms of technological and economic performance. It is therefore vital, he argues, to understand the way in which different political and economic interests have helped shaped the Internet and allowed it to overcome rival technologies. Issues of particular importance include the role of negotiations among different social groups in the design of the Internet as well as the influence of US promotion. The author also examines patterns of growth and pervasiveness of the Internet between different regions and countries, providing new evidence on the factors influencing the extent of the 'digital divide'. Using econometric models, he goes on to identify the features of the co-evolution of the Internet and other sub-systems within countries, and highlights the most interesting features of their local and global interplay. Researchers and academics involved with science and technology policy, industrial and corporate change, and the information society will welcome this insightful, original and highly pertinent book. It will also be of value for anyone with an interest in how the backbone of the digital economy was formed.

Download or read book International Economic Governance in a Multipolar World written by Radhika Desai and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers key aspects of the governance of the world economy, from the structures of capitalism to regional economic integration through the trading and production systems. International economic governance was already in crisis well before the pandemic, and talk of the crisis of multilateralism and of the postwar Bretton Woods arrangements had become commonplace. The pandemic, with its economic, political, and international reverberations, has only widened and deepened that crisis, which has now taken the form of a new cold war on China, and made the search for solutions more urgent. In this context, the chapters in this volume contribute to a deeper understanding of how international economic governance and the world economy have been changing over the long run, and provide insights into the new forms they are taking at the macro and micro levels. The book covers the crisis of capitalism revealed by the pandemic, particularly when contrasted with socialist countries, initiatives of regional economic integration that challenge, rather than being subordinated by, western powers, including the US, the evolution of the trade regime in ways that make contemporary trade wars intelligible, and the shakeup of the international production system. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of The Japanese Political Economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: society, and state (Streeck, 1999; Simonis, 1998). Interspersed between these most commonly named elements are the following: First, the high political integrating force of the German Model after WWII was based on the adoption and transformation of corporatist political structures from National Socialist Germany. Liberal capitalism was (re)introduced under political competition between Christian Democrats and Social Democrats, who eventually found common ground in the politically mediated compromise between capital and labor: “This compromise was negotiated and institutionalized at a time when the communist wing of the workers movement and the authoritarian voices of German capital – for various reasons – were excluded from political participation” (Streeck, 1999, p. 15; translation: SB). The partnership between firms and unions manifested itself in manifold institutional structures. Apart from the social partners’ autonomy in matters of wage policy, worker codetermination at plant level and in operations is regarded as one of the special achievements of the German Model and has contributed substantially to social peace. The political coordination forms of concerted action, round tables, as well as modernization and crisis cartels gave birth to a highly complex political decision-making structure which, based on a federalist setup, has rightly been called “negotiation state” (Esser, 1998, p. 123). Second, the material foundation of this “Social Democratic class compromise” (Buci-Glucksmann & Therborn, 1981) consisted in the Federal Republic’s – in the words of Göste Esping-Andersen – “conservative-liberal” form of welfare state.
