Our digital world is increasingly mobile. All mobile communication
rests upon access to one invisible, essential element: the radio
spectrum. In Frequencies Gregory Taylor and Catherine Middleton
bring together diverse national perspectives to explore the current
and future state of spectrum governance worldwide. Spectrum is a
foundational component of our contemporary communication
infrastructure. The stakes are massive: mobile network operators
have invested billions of dollars via national spectrum auctions to
claim exclusive use of prime spectrum bands. Despite this windfall
for national governments, many people around the globe remain
disconnected from mobile service, yet international policy
comparisons that can help us understand these disparities and
differences are rare. Frequencies offers illuminating case studies
from around the world, including Finland, Mexico, New Zealand,
India, and Canada, as well as forward-thinking approaches to our
use of radio frequencies that encourage greater public benefit and
technological advancement. The contributors to Frequencies
represent a wide array of disciplinary backgrounds, united by the
common goal of maximizing the value and access to the public good
that is the radio spectrum. Spectrum policy affects everyone,
whether while listening to the radio, making an emergency phone
call, or scrolling through social media updates. Frequencies seeks
to broaden the discussion about our management of this primary
resource necessary for how the world shares information.
