Contents Origins of European governance in communications: The formative years (late 1940s -- late 1960s) -- The crisis years: national capital and the search for European solutions and identity (late 1960s -- late 1970s) -- Defensive Europeanization: Industrial policy moves to Europe (late 1970s -- mid-/late 1980s) -- Liberalization and re-regulation: The high-peak of European governance? (mid-/late 1980s -- late 1990s) -- Competitiveness, knowledge economy and technological convergence: Toward policy coordination (Late 1990s to early 2007)
Summary Governing European Communications provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the emergence, dynamics, and evolution of European-level communications governance in the post-war era, focusing on telecommunications and television policies and regulation, and their technological convergence. Concentrating on the EU, the book embeds governance within broader economic and political developments in a global context and demonstrates that European governance has been more about the character rather than the level of regulation
