商品描述

In Digital Crossroads, two experts on telecommunications policy offer a comprehensive and accessible analysis of the regulation of competition in the U.S. telecommunications industry. The first edition of Digital Crossroads (MIT Press, 2005) became an essential and uniquely readable guide for policymakers, lawyers, scholars, and students in a fast-moving and complex policy field. In this second edition, the authors have revised every section of every chapter to reflect the evolution in industry structure, technology, and regulatory strategy since 2005.

The book features entirely new discussions of such topics as the explosive development of the mobile broadband ecosystem; incentive auctions and other recent spectrum policy initiatives; the FCC's net neutrality rules; the National Broadband Plan; the declining relevance of the traditional public switched telephone network; and the policy response to online video services and their potential to transform the way Americans watch television. Like its predecessor, this new edition of Digital Crossroads not only helps nonspecialists climb this field's formidable learning curve, but also makes substantive contributions to ongoing policy debates.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在《數位十字路口》中,兩位電信政策專家提供了對美國電信產業競爭規範的全面且易於理解的分析。《數位十字路口》的第一版(MIT Press,2005年)成為了政策制定者、律師、學者和學生在這個快速變化且複雜的政策領域中不可或缺且獨特易讀的指南。在這第二版中,作者已修訂每一章的每一部分,以反映自2005年以來產業結構、技術和監管策略的演變。

本書包含了全新的討論主題,例如移動寬頻生態系統的爆炸性發展;激勵拍賣及其他近期的頻譜政策倡議;FCC的網路中立性規則;全國寬頻計畫;傳統公共交換電話網路的相關性下降;以及對線上視頻服務的政策回應及其改變美國人觀看電視方式的潛力。與前一版一樣,這本新版本的《數位十字路口》不僅幫助非專業人士克服這個領域的艱難學習曲線,還對持續的政策辯論做出了實質性的貢獻。
