Von der hinteren Coverseite

Although telecommunications are in a state of constant change throughout the world, nowhere have the transformations advanced further, faster and in more interesting ways than in the Pacific Basin. This change is closely linked to the more general progress of the electronic sector in the region which has moved forward at an incredible pace as well as the region's important need for telecommunications services based on its geographic distance from the rest of the industrialized world. Telecommunications in the Pacific Basin emphasizes the economic, regulatory, and social change caused by technological evolution, marketplace developments and institutional reorganization. The contributors discuss the evolution of telecommunication networks, compare deregulation policies in different countries, and analyze public and private cooperation in international informatics. Individual articles focus on the telecommunications systems in numerous countries including Australia, Canada, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and the Philippines, as well as the United States. This comprehensive and essential analysis evolves around a multi-stage evolutionary model of public telecommunications networks. It will be of interest to students and professionals in the areas of communications, economics, regulatory law, telecommunications engineering, media, and political science.
