This volume brings together academic economists and lawyers to evaluate and compare the regulation of telecommunications markets in Germany and the United States. The unifying theme in all of the papers is that the goal of public policy in this area should be to make the broadest and most functional competition possible by means of an appropriate regulatory framework. Because the European and American telecommunications markets are becoming more intertwined each day, the issues addressed in this volume will be topical to the business, government, and academic communities for some time.
The publication of these papers will make important research accessible to a broad audience on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, enrich the public discussion, and thereby contribute to the continuing development of public policy in the dynamic area of telecommunications.
In Making a Killing: The Deadly Implications of the Counterfeit Drug Trade, AEI resident fellow Roger Bate analyzes the burgeoning international trade in counterfeit drugs and recommends steps that governments and law enforcement agencies could take to stop it.
The promise of "healthy aging" offers significant opportunities for economic growth and development for Europe in the decades ahead--if governments and citizens are willing to grasp them.
