Professors Crew and Kleindorfer have once again assembled a
valuable collection of essays that address timely and important
issues in postal sectors throughout the world. The essays employ
diverse methodologies to provide useful insights about recent and
likely future developments in the postal industry. This book will
be a valuable resource for researchers, industry practitioners, and
policymakers alike.' - David E.M. Sappington, University of
Florida, USIn our increasingly technology-focused world, demand for
traditional postal services is steadily shrinking. This timely
volume examines the many challenges that the worldwide postal
sector is facing as a result of growing electronic competition, and
offers expert recommendations for reshaping postal structures to
strengthen their competitiveness in an electronic age. Drawn from a
selection of papers presented at the 20th Conference on Postal and
Delivery Economics in Brighton, UK, this book showcases expert
contributions on the rapidly changing postal sectors in both the
United States and Europe. Topics discussed include the various
financial challenges posed by decreasing demand for postal
services, recent changes in how postal services are provided, and
new structures and modes of operation, such as privatization, that
are currently affecting the industry. Contributors offer a thorough
breakdown of the issues as well as ideas for keeping the postal
sector alive in a world that is growing ever more reliant on purely
electronic means of communication. Economists with an interest in
regulatory economics, innovation and public sector economics will
find this volume useful and informative, as will institutional
libraries and industry professionals.
