Thailand And Its Shortcut Towards General Competition In Telecommunications Industry, Piyabutr Bunaramrueang
Thailand And Its Shortcut Towards General Competition In Telecommunications Industry, Piyabutr Bunaramrueang
piyabutr bunaramrueang
It is commonly known that telecommunications industry requires a specific set of regulations in dealing with its own critical issues, particularly of asymmetric regulation in its context of natural monopoly. Today in the digital age, telecommunications industry is transitioning towards general competition meaning that the specific conditions are fading out; specific rules are becoming unnecessary. The United States and the European Union have provided the most advanced examples in this area which have being developed for more than a century. Nonetheless, each country has its own conditions and specific requirements. For examples, the United States possesses very strong systems interplaying …
Telecommunications In Transitioning Towards General Competition: A Comparative Study On Interconnection In The U.S., The Eu And Thailand, Piyabutr Bunaramrueang
Telecommunications In Transitioning Towards General Competition: A Comparative Study On Interconnection In The U.S., The Eu And Thailand, Piyabutr Bunaramrueang
piyabutr bunaramrueang
Telecommunications industry is generally known for its specific set of regulations in dealing with its own critical issues, particularly of competition in the context of natural monopoly and asymmetric regulation. Interconnection is the major condition which is intensely regulated. Nonetheless, telecommunications regulations are transitioning towards general competition meaning that the specific conditions are fading out; specific rules are becoming unnecessary. The regulation of interconnection is now in question. The United States and the European Union have provided the most advanced examples which have been developing for more than a century. However, each country has its own conditions and specific requirements. …
Presidents And Process: A Comparison Of The Regulatory Process Under The Clinton And Bush (43) Administrations, Stuart Shapiro
Presidents And Process: A Comparison Of The Regulatory Process Under The Clinton And Bush (43) Administrations, Stuart Shapiro
Stuart Shapiro
Do procedural controls placed on the regulatory process allow politicians to control bureaucratic decisionmaking? I use data on the regulatory process under the Clinton and Bush Administrations to assess the differences between these presidents with distinct ideological regulatory agendas. I find that the number of comments received, the changes made between proposal and finalization of rules, the frequency with which agencies bypass notice and comment, the frequency of use of different regulatory analyses, and the time to complete a rulemaking did not vary substantially between the two presidencies. This raises questions about the role of procedural controls on agency decisionmaking.
Forensic Dna Phenotyping: Regulatory Issues, Bert-Jaap Koops, Maurice Schellekens
Forensic Dna Phenotyping: Regulatory Issues, Bert-Jaap Koops, Maurice Schellekens
Bert-Jaap Koops
Forensic DNA phenotyping is an interesting new investigation method: crime-scene DNA is analyzed to compose a description of the unknown suspect, including external and behavioral features, geographic origin and perhaps surname. This method is allowed in some countries but prohibited in a few others. Most countries have not yet taken a stance on this. This article addresses the question to what extent this investigation method should be allowed. The relevant regulatory issues are analyzed: the right of people not to know what their DNA tells about propensities for diseases or other propensities, data protection and privacy, stigmatization and discrimination, and …
Federal Search Commission? Access, Fairness, And Accountability In The Law Of Search, Oren Bracha, Frank Pasquale
Federal Search Commission? Access, Fairness, And Accountability In The Law Of Search, Oren Bracha, Frank Pasquale
Oren Bracha
Should search engines be subject to the types of regulation now applied to personal data collectors, cable networks, or phone books? In this article, we make the case for some regulation of the ability of search engines to manipulate and structure their results. We demonstrate that the First Amendment, properly understood, does not prohibit such regulation. Nor will such interventions inevitably lead to the disclosure of important trade secrets. After setting forth normative foundations for evaluating search engine manipulation, we explain how neither market discipline nor technological advance is likely to stop it. Though savvy users and personalized search may …
The Sec Regulation Of Takeovers: Some Doubts From A Game Theory Perspective And A Proposal For Reform, Sharon Hannes, Omri Yadlin
The Sec Regulation Of Takeovers: Some Doubts From A Game Theory Perspective And A Proposal For Reform, Sharon Hannes, Omri Yadlin
Sharon Hannes
In theory, a hostile tender offer poses a threat to the target shareholders who, for strategic reasons, may tender their shares in response to an inferior bid. It has therefore been suggested that the decision to tender be made separately from the shareholder vote on the actual merits of the bid. While the regulator has never adopted this proposal, market forces in the poison pill era did generate a mechanism with a similar effect. To overcome a poison pill (a mechanism implemented by managers to thwart bids), the bidder must win the shareholders’ vote in a proxy contest that is …
Pharmaceutical Lemons: Innovation And Regulation In The Drug Industry, Ariel Katz
Pharmaceutical Lemons: Innovation And Regulation In The Drug Industry, Ariel Katz
Ariel Katz
Before a new drug can be marketed the Food and Drug Administration must be satisfied that it is safe and effective. According to conventional wisdom, the cost and delay involved in this process diminish the incentives to invest in the development of new drugs. Accordingly, several reforms aimed at restoring such incentives have been implemented and others have been advocated. This paper challenges the central argument in the debate on the topic, namely that drug regulation and drug innovation are necessarily at odds with each other. Although intuitively appealing, the argument that drug regulation negatively affects the incentives to innovate …
Six Principles For Limiting Government-Facilitated Restraints On Competition, Michal Gal, Inbal Faibish
Six Principles For Limiting Government-Facilitated Restraints On Competition, Michal Gal, Inbal Faibish
Michal Gal
Regulation is an important tool to deal with market imperfections. Regulation might, however, sometimes go beyond what is socially justified and create undue restraints on competition. The problem of social engineering is thus to devise a system that will ensure that the optimum combination of competition and regulation is achieved.
This article suggests harnessing the comparative advantages of competition authorities to this task. It proposes six general principles that are aimed at creating a system of "checks and balances" which maintains adequate safeguards to ensure that competition will be limited only where socially warranted. Whereas much has been written about …
Principles For Policymaking About Collaborative Law And Other Adr Processes, John Lande
Principles For Policymaking About Collaborative Law And Other Adr Processes, John Lande
John Lande
This Article articulates a set of principles for policymaking about “alternative dispute resolution” (ADR) to promote values of process pluralism, choice in dispute resolution processes, and sound decisionmaking. It argues that policymakers should use a dispute system design (DSD) framework in analyzing policy options. DSD involves systematically managing a series of disputes rather than handling individual disputes on an ad hoc basis. It generally includes assessing the needs of disputants and other stakeholders, planning to address those needs, providing necessary training and education for disputants and dispute resolution professionals, implementing the system, evaluating it, and making periodic modifications as needed. …
The How And Why Of The New Public Corporation Tax Shelter Compliance Norm, Susan Cleary Morse
The How And Why Of The New Public Corporation Tax Shelter Compliance Norm, Susan Cleary Morse
Susan Cleary Morse
This paper examines the recent shift toward an anti-tax shelter federal income tax compliance norm at public corporations, as evidenced by practitioner and government comments and survey results. The paper focuses on the organizational behavior of tax decisionmakers within public corporations as they respond to Sarbanes-Oxley, enforcement and publicity initiatives, and tax shelter regulation.
The paper identifies three elements that have contributed to the development of a stronger tax compliance norm. First, Sarbanes-Oxley has resulted in the expansion and increased transparency of public corporation tax decisionmaking groups. Organizational behavior insights suggest that this may produce more considered decisions. Second, civil …
Telecommunication Regulation Of Thailand And Its Commitments Of Progressive Liberalization To Wto, Piyabutr Bunaramrueang
Telecommunication Regulation Of Thailand And Its Commitments Of Progressive Liberalization To Wto, Piyabutr Bunaramrueang
piyabutr bunaramrueang
Domestic regulation of telecommunication services sector is a part of the obligations and specific commitments under the General Agreement of Trade in Services (GATS) of WTO. Reference paper is the instrument that includes a set of the regulatory disciplines resulted from the negotiations, and based on the principles of objective, transparent and non-discriminatory manner. Thailand, as a participant of the negotiations, has undertaken those disciplines with few modifications as additional commitments; however, the modifications are not objective comparing to those of other participants. Nonetheless, it is a possibility that Thailand might undertake the Reference Paper eventually as a whole. To …

Who Is Going To Supervise Europe's Financial Markets, Mads Andenas
Who Is Going To Supervise Europe's Financial Markets, Mads Andenas
Mads Andenas
The article argues that financial market regulation at the national level cannot be effective. Rule-making, supervision and the handling of crises require international and European solutions. In the EU, EMU with its separation of monetary policy and banking regulation, this is particularly striking. Different forms of cooperation will not be sufficient. But financial market regulation is crisis driven, and only a crisis where the national institutions are shown to fail will force the way for a European or international institutional solution, perhaps around the ECB or IMF. The welfare cost of such a crisis will be a high price to …
Normativity In International Law: The Case Of Unilateral Humanitarian Intervention, Daphne Richemond-Barak
Normativity In International Law: The Case Of Unilateral Humanitarian Intervention, Daphne Richemond-Barak
Daphne Richemond-Barak
This Article argues that the ambiguous normative regime currently governing unilateral humanitarian intervention provides an adequate legal framework for such intervention. The Article reviews the arguments typically made in support of a codified, strict normative regime, finding that strict normativity is unlikely to deter human rights violators more effectively than the current framework. In addition, the Article points out that any effort to codify a norm of unilateral humanitarian intervention faces formidable obstacles. Such an effort must overcome the conflict between the traditional doctrine of state sovereignty and emerging principles of human rights, as well as practical difficulties in reaching …
Purveyance And Power Or Over-Priced Free Lunch: The Intellectual Property Clause As An Ally Of The Takings Clause In The Public’S Control Of Government, Malla Pollack
Malla Pollack
Government can bypass citizen control if it can use revenue not publicly scrutinized through the public taxing/spending system. One method of bypass is paying with non-monetary compensation such as (i) property, or (ii) the right to charge others for some necessary good or service, intangible property. The Takings/Just Compensation Clause of the Fifth Amendment is one authority controlling government's ability to bypass financial scrutiny. In this article, I argue that the Intellectual Property Clause also should be used to control some governmental bypass. I attempt to justify this suggestion both theoretically and historically. The historical material included focuses on English …
Opt-In Government: Using The Internet To Empower Choice – Privacy Application, Malla Pollack
Opt-In Government: Using The Internet To Empower Choice – Privacy Application, Malla Pollack
Malla Pollack
This article proposes a relatively novel model of government regulation and illustrates how the model might work with respect to Internet privacy protection for U.S. residents. [I suggest "opt-in government" as a practical method to integrate the democratic concept of voice with the market model of choice. "Opt-in government" either (i) creates "a safe place" that persons may enter only if they wish to do so, or (ii) enables a choice that the so-called private sector has not offered.
