Description
I. INTRODUCTION In numerous articles and papers, I have stressed in varying ways that sustainable regulatory telecommunications policies require simultaneous satisfaction of economic viability and political feasibility constraints, and that satisfaction of these constraints is becoming more challenging for regulatory regimes based on competition rather than monopoly. Some articles have examined the sustainability of specific regulatory policies, such as universal service, (1) rate rebalancing, (2) and the effects of detariffing on liability rules. (3) Others have broadened the scope of inquiry, looking at sustainability problems arising from fundamental attributes of the U.S. governance structure, (4) including efforts to retrench from public utility regulation (5) and to resist extension of common carriage obligations to broadband access services. (6) Throughout this research, I have sought to provide the foundation for a more general analytical framework for designing sustainable telecommunications policies based primarily on legal and economic analyses and incorporation of models and insights from the political science literature.
