It begins by giving a brief history of the American approach to the regulation of switched, cable, Wireless, satellite, broadband, and IP networks and services. It then provides an overview of the numerous governmental bodies involved in the regulation of the US telecommunications market. It summarizes the licensing requirements under the communications Act of 1934, and briefly explains the US approach to certain key regulatory issues: access, interconnection and related measures, including network neutrality, spectrum management, universal service, the application of competition law to the sector, and communications privacy. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | Telecommunications Law and Regulation, p. 187-274 | Publisher: | Oxford University Press | Place of Publication: | Oxford, United Kingdom | ISBN: | 9780199656660 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 189999 Law and Legal Studies not elsewhere classified 180199 Law not elsewhere classified |
