"This book is indispensable to anyone involved in competition and
regulation policy of network industries, as it provides an
impressive review of the state of our knowledge in applied
industrial organisation. Each chapter draws policy schemes from the
most advanced progress in the analysis of competition on and for
the market, with the objective of properly accounting for the
network effects and vertical relations between infrastructure and
operations that characterise these industries. Considered jointly,
all of these chapters also delineate the research agenda in the
field." Marc Ivaldi, IDEI Researcher and Research Director, Aecole
des Hautes Aetudes en Sciences Sociales, Toulouse; CEPR Industrial
Organisation Programme Director "Excellent book, not to be missed!
It offers most comprehensive analyses and policy prescriptions. It
will prove most useful for scholars, policy makers and students. I
was particularly impressed by how the book captures the essence of
the new thinking on the interface between regulation and
competition; dealing with a wide range of critical issues such as
collusion, mergers, regulatory capture, governance,
institutionality, procurement and oversight, and always emphasising
actionable policy options. The authors have done an excellent job
of making this complex subject highly accessible." Jose Luis
Guasch, Professor, University of California, San Diego; Former Head
of the World Bank Global Expert Team on Public Private Partnerships
and Senior Adviser on Regulation and Competition, World Bank
"Emerging Issues in Competition, Collusion, and Regulation of
Network Industries is a timely collection of the 'new generation'
issues of network regulation, such as institutional diversity,
regulatory capture, and governance. The volume marries up-to-date
sectoral studies with more conceptually-targeted papers, and thus
provides new answers to old questions. Thanks to the high quality
of the authors, the volume should become a reference work in the
new regulatory literature." Professor Christian von Hirschhausen,
TU Berlin and DIW Berlin (German Institute for Economic Research)
