Tóm tắt

Countries with fully liberalized telecommunications markets have adopted different mixes of antitrust and sector-specific regulatory instruments.

Drawing on the experiences of Australia, Chile, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, this Note finds that it does matter. Countries that get the balance right tend to have more competitive telecommunications markets.
