Over the last several years, the value of stocks in both the
airline and the telecommunications industries have dropped
catastrophically. Since these industries were among the most
important -and most visible -to have been unleashed from regulation
in recent decades (albeit in widely differing degree), their
difficulties have raised the question of whether their deregulation
should be reconsidered or even reversed. Alfred E. Kahn, one of the
foremost authorities on deregulation, argues in this book that
every passing year demonstrates the superiority of the road chosen
for the airlines. He contrasts the financial meltdowns of both the
airline and telecommunications industries with others taking place
at the same time, particularly in technology-related stocks and
""dot.coms,"" pointing out that these sectors were also relatively
free of direct economic regulation. Their experience provides a
useful counter to the natural tendency to blame all the woes of
aviation and telecommunications on government policy. This book
provides a valuable and accessible guide to unraveling the complex
world of network deregulation. It will serve as a reference point
for practioners and policymakers, as well as an important
introduction for the general public.
