The passage of the 1996 Telecommunications Act resulted in a major
revision of the Communications Act of 1934 to address the emergence
of competition in what were previously considered to be
monopolistic markets. Since its passage, however, the advancement
of broadband technology to supply data, voice, and video; the
growing convergence of the telecommunications and media sectors;
and the growth in demand for usable radio frequency spectrum has
led to a consensus that the laws that govern these sectors have
become inadequate to address this rapidly changing environment and
have, according to a growing number of policy-makers, made it
necessary to consider revising the current regulatory framework.
This book provides an overview of selected topics that, while far
from a definitive list, provide a broad overview of issues that are
central to the telecommunications/media convergence debate. The
issues covered in this book include broadband deployment, broadband
regulation and access, broadcast media ownership rules, funding for
the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, emergency communications,
legal issues regarding facilities siting, Federal Communications
Commission oversight and reform, Internet governance and the domain
name system, reauthorization of statutory copyright and
communications provisions in the Satellite Television Extension and
Localism Act, spectrum policy and wireless broadband deployment,
and Universal Service Fund reform.
