Beyond liberalization II: The impending doom of common carriage

Author

  • Noam, Eli M

Abstract

This article argues that the institution of common carriage, historically the foundation of the way telecommunications are delivered, will not survive. The article first discusses the meaning of common carriage and how it emerged It then analyses the present and future pressures on the common carrier system. Finally, it speculates about a future without common carriage and the impact on the free flow of diverse information.
