Regulating in an imperfect world: building independence through legitimacy

Abstract

Discusses telecommunication regulatory agencies, which have multiplied worldwide. Proclaims the new regulators can win effective independence and position themselves as exemplars of good governance. Sums up that good regulatory design is never fully completed, in the same way that a computer system’s firewall is never completed.
