Deregulation of Network Industries: What's Next?

This volume assesses the state of deregulation in the major U.S. network industries: airlines, railroads, telecommunications, and electricity. Each chapter identifies the central policy issues that have arisen in each industry as it undergoes its transformation to a deregulated environment. The authors reveal the flaws of remaining regulations and make the case for faster and more comprehensive deregulation.

Contributors include Robert Crandall (Brookings), Curtis Grimm (University of Maryland), Jerry Hausman (MIT), Paul Joskow (MIT), and Steven Morrison (Northeastern).
