The development of a state telecommunications infrastructure: A survey of telephone companies and large users

Telecommunications Policy, 1990, vol. 14, issue 2, 169-175

Abstract: This article examines the development of a telecommunications infrastructure at the state level by presenting the results of a survey of telephone companies and large users of telecommunication services in Texas. This analysis suggests that telecommunications-intensive organizations are increasingly investing resources in establishing their own telecommunications systems and services. This development presents a threat to local telephone companies, and offers some interesting information to policymakers who are considering how to change their own telecommunications infrastructure.
