Book excerpt: 'Anyone who has tried to keep up with the rapid analytical and policy developments in the telecommunications industry should welcome this volume which brings together contributions from both antitrust officials in the EU and the US and from academia. All of the main issues, such as market definition, collective dominance and access and network sharing problems, are included along with an authoritative and up-to-date commentary of policy in the EU and US. the experience and expertise of the contributors make it an incomparable source for everyone concerned with this key sector.' - Michael Utton, University of Reading, UK 'The Economics of Antitrust and Regulation in Telecommunications is the outcome of a year long project conducted by the European Commission, and provides readers with a framework for enhancing the treatment of antitrust cases within the sector. Its fundamental point of departure is the aim of better integrating economics with the sector's industrial realities. An aim in which it succeeds. the work examines in-depth the fundamentals of network industry market definition (increasingly a problem in convergent industries), collective dominance, network access and resource allocation by cutting-edge academics and prominent European Commission antitrust officials. As such many lessons are relevant beyond narrow confines of the telecommunications sector. A particularly timely feature of the work is the inclusion of a section on 3G markets. the result is a definitive and important work. Taken as a whole, this resource provides valuable insights, and not only for the telecommunications sector but network industries in general. the tome is essential reading for business, telecommunication, public policy, and network technology decision-makers around the globe.' - Gary Madden, Curtin University of Technology and Communications Economics and Electronic Markets Research Centre, Australia Bringing together contributions from high level EU officials and prominent academic economists on one of the most exciting issues in industrial economics, this timely book aims to promote dialogue between policy and academic research, and provides a unique forum for debate on the new European regulatory framework in telecommunications.

Download or read book The Economics of Mobile Telecommunications written by Harald Gruber and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-26 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mobile telecommunications industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors around the world. This book offers a comprehensive economic analysis of the main determinants of growth in the industry. Harald Gruber demonstrates the importance of competitive entry and the setting of technological standards, both of which play a central role in their contribution to the fast diffusion of technology. Detailed country studies provide empirical evidence for the development of the main themes: the diffusion of mobile telecommunications services, the pricing policies in network industries, the role of entry barriers such as radio spectrum and spectrum allocation procedures. This research-based survey will appeal to a wide range of applied industrial economists within universities, government and the industry itself.
Download or read book Captive Audience written by Susan Crawford and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten years ago, the United States stood at the forefront of the Internet revolution. With some of the fastest speeds and lowest prices in the world for high-speed Internet access, the nation was poised to be the global leader in the new knowledge-based economy. Today that global competitive advantage has all but vanished because of a series of government decisions and resulting monopolies that have allowed dozens of countries, including Japan and South Korea, to pass us in both speed and price of broadband. This steady slide backward not only deprives consumers of vital services needed in a competitive employment and business market—it also threatens the economic future of the nation. This important book by leading telecommunications policy expert Susan Crawford explores why Americans are now paying much more but getting much less when it comes to high-speed Internet access. Using the 2011 merger between Comcast and NBC Universal as a lens, Crawford examines how we have created the biggest monopoly since the breakup of Standard Oil a century ago. In the clearest terms, this book explores how telecommunications monopolies have affected the daily lives of consumers and America's global economic standing.
Download or read book Shaping American Telecommunications written by Christopher Sterling and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-08-15 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shaping American Telecommunications examines the technical, regulatory, and economic forces that have shaped the development of American telecommunications services. This volume is both an introduction to the basic technical, economic, and regulatory principles underlying telecommunications, and a detailed account of major events that have marked development of the sector in the United States. Beginning with the introduction of the telegraph and continuing through to current developments in wireless and online services, authors Christopher H. Sterling, Phyllis W. Bernt, and Martin B.H. Weiss explain each stage of telecommunications development, examining the interplay among technical innovation, policy decisions, and regulatory developments. Offering an integrated treatment of the interplay among technology, policy, and economics as key factors defining the development of the telecommunications sector in the United States, this volume also provides: *background material to facilitate understanding of each sector; *contexts for many so-called "new" issues, problems, and trends, demonstrating origins from years or decades in the past; and *careful annotation, documentation, and reference tables to enable further research on the topics discussed. This unique multidisciplinary approach provides a balanced view of U.S. telecommunications history, in context with relevant economic, legal, social, and technical analyses. As such, it is essential reading for advanced students in telecommunications needing to understand how the telecommunications industry and service developed to its current form. The volume will also serve as a supplemental text in courses on telecommunications regulation, and it will be of value to professionals in the field seeking context and background for their daily work.
Download or read book Spectrum Auctions and Competition in Telecommunications written by Gerhard Illing and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2003-12-23 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading experts in industrial organization and auction theory examine the recent European telecommunication license auction experience. In 2000 and 2001, several European countries carried out auctions for third generation technologies or universal mobile telephone services (UMTS) communication licenses. These "spectrum auctions" inaugurated yet another era in an industry that has already been transformed by a combination of staggering technological innovation and substantial regulatory change. Because of their spectacular but often puzzling outcomes, these spectrum auctions attracted enormous attention and invited new research on the interplay of auctions, industry dynamics, and regulation. This book collects essays on this topic by leading analysts of telecommunications and the European auction experience, all but one presented at a November 2001 CESifo conference; comments and responses are included as well, to preserve some of the controversy and atmosphere of give-and-take at the conference.The essays show the interconnectedness of two important and productive areas of modern economics, auction theory and industrial organization. Because spectrum auctions are embedded in a dynamic interaction of consumers, firms, legislation, and regulation, a multidimensional approach yields important insights. The first essays discuss strategies of stimulating new competition and the complex interplay of the political process, regulation, and competition. The later essays focus on specific spectrum auctions. Combining the empirical data these auctions provide with recent advances in microeconomic theory, they examine questions of auction design and efficiency and convincingly explain the enormous variation of revenues in different auctions.
