Legal Aspects of Implementing International Telecommunication Links: Institutions, Regulations and Instruments - Jan M. Smits - Library Binding

Technological advances strongly influence developments in international telecommunications services. This book illustrates how international institutional and regulatory frameworks implement technological advances in the field of telecommunications. These frameworks canalize technology on the one hand and guide legal implementation of the actual international connections on the other. International telecommunications links are implemented by means of geostationary satellite or through submarine cables. The regulations and organizations dealing with satellite connections differ significantly from international regulations and organizations in the field of submarine cables. In Legal Aspects of Implementing International Telecommunication Links the concepts of 'allocation' and 'interconnection' are used to bridge the gap between these two different domains. Following a characterization and discussion of these concepts, The actual legal implementation of both types of connections is described in detail.Smits, Jan M. is the author of 'Legal Aspects of Implementing International Telecommunication Links: Institutions, Regulations and Instruments - Jan M.
