Broadband Policy: Industry Planning and the Public Interest

Robert Loube

Journal of Economic Issues, 2016, vol. 50, issue 2, 510-518

Abstract: Public interest regulation protects society by constraining private economic power, and it promotes the construction of essential infrastructure facilities. The Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) broadband plan supports the deployment of broadband service and the maintenance of an open Internet. The paper uses Harry M. Trebing’s public interest paradigm to evaluate the FCC’s broadband plan.
