Book After the Breakup

Download or read book After the Breakup written by Barry G. Cole and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 8, 1982, the AT&T divestiture consent decree was announced. A company with $150 billion in assets--more than General Motors, General Electric, U.S. Steel, Eastman Kodak, and Xerox combined--the country's second largest employer with over a million employees, and the nations most widely held security with over three million shareholders, was to be broken up on the first day of 1984. Many economists, government officials, people in the telecommunications industry, and media observers predicted dire consequences for "the best telephone system in the world." Years later, some experts claim the divestiture has been a great success. According to present AT&T Chairman and CEO, Robert Allen, long-distance rates have dropped, local rates have not increased as dramatically as predicted, more households are on the network, other long-distance and equipment companies now effectively compete wit hAT&T, and consumers have received more choices in products, better values, and lower prices. Others are far less positive in their evaluation of divestiture's effects. After the Breakup: Assessing the New Post-AT&T Divestiture Era describes the current state of telecommunications and how the industry has changed in the first decade of divestiture. Drawn from a major project organized by the Center for Telecommunications and Information Studies at Columbia University's Graduate School of Business, this volume offers an objective account of divestiture.

Book AT   T  American Telephone and Telegraph Company  Aftermath of Antitrust  Preserving Positive Command and Control

Download or read book AT T American Telephone and Telegraph Company Aftermath of Antitrust Preserving Positive Command and Control written by and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On New Year's Day 1984, the court-ordered divestiture of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company will end universal service by a single system and begin a new competitive era in US communications. The divestiture, which affects every telephone user in the United States, poses a special problem for the Department of Defense, which has relied for decades on AT & T's integrated management and unified network. The author analyzes the effects of divestiture, focuses on the strategic communications necessary for positive command and control during national emergencies. That the Department of Defense opposed fragmenting the national network is a matter of record the author points to the task at hand: the planning and management required to reintegrate the separated components into an instantaneously responsive, reliable whole. His examination of defense capabilities, marketplace realities, national communications policy, and legislative needs advances a blueprint for action by Defense managers and all policymakers charged with ensuring the nation's security. Although divestiture has weakened the national communications network, the author suggests that the competitive marketplace may well hold the solution for making strategic communications better than ever.

Book After the Breakup

Download or read book After the Breakup written by Robert W. Crandall and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. telecommunications industry has undergone dramatic changes in recent years that have touched almost every American home and business. The average American can dial almost anywhere in the world directly, store and forward a message, or transmit a fax in less than a minute; often for less than the real cost of a 500-mile telephone call tweny-five years ago. The combination of telecommunications breakthroughs, competition among new and old carriers, and the AT&T breakup has transformed the telephone industry and provided customers with a new array of equipment and services. Robert W. Crandall examines the effects of the AT&T breakup and weighs the costs and benefits to the residential and business consumer. On balance, he finds that the efficiency gains from opening up the telephone industry have more than offset the possible efficiency losses, which may be caused by the sacrifice of economies of scale and scope or the absence of fully compatible equipment and services. The replacement of regulation with competition has led to greater productivity in the telephone industry, a more efficient rate structure, and lower equipment prices. Crandall traces the telecommunications evolution from its early beginnings as pairs of copper wires up through the historic 1982 decision to divest. He investigates the impact of technological changes, competition, and the advent of divestiture on the quality of service, local and interexchange service rates, productive efficiency, and income distribution. He also focuses on problems that linger after the breakup in the increasingly competitive but highly regulated sector.
