In 2009, the South Korean government reformed its communications sector through legislation that addresses convergence services. This study traces the policy-making process of the convergence in terms of politics and regulation, and it also examines how the stakeholders' interests are aligned and coordinated in the policymaking process of convergence in Korea. Using actor-network theory, this study relates the socio-political construction of Korea's strategy for convergence reform. Key research questions include: (1) what social and political factors influence strategy formulation and (2) how do different interests stabilize ideologies in which actors formulate their strategies based on their interests. Despite the dynamic interactions, the actor-network around convergence has yet not been effectively stabilized, as the politics of convergence is complex and marked by paradoxical features. This study suggests new intellectual perspectives and methodological heuristics that may assist researchers and practitioners analytical efforts in examining socio-technical change and the implications for policy development and implementation. 相似文献

Technological convergence has challenged the wisdom of regulators around the world for years, especially since the boom of the internet in the early 1990s. Different approaches have been proposed to replace the legacy “silo” regulatory model. This is now a compelling issue in China, the world's largest developing country. The historical separation between telecommunications and television and the strict “silo” type of regulation have resulted in an asymmetric market where phone companies control the conduit and broadcasters dominate the content. However, the Chinese government has turned the convergence of telecommunication, television and internet into a national strategy. According to the State Council's ambitious plan, the Chinese government aims to achieve a competitive converged information industry and an accompanying clear, scientific and efficient regulatory regime by 2015. Drawing on the theory of fragmented authoritarianism, this paper examines China's uneven path to triple-network convergence. Theoretically, this paper complements the existing research on China's information policy, which is mostly one-shot and sector-specific, with a complete treatment of convergence policy evolution that involves both telecommunications and television. Practically, this paper finds that there are two remarkable characteristics in China's convergence policy-making, namely, the causal relationship between institutional and policy change and the consistent policy objectives, which will continue to shape to future to come. Based on the above findings, a sketch of the future regulatory regime and relevant policy recommendations are provided. 相似文献

This article attempts to explain the key points of the new financing reform of public service broadcasting in Spain. The following questions are analyzed: controversial points; the new law, private broadcasting, and the telecommunications sector; and the future of public service broadcasting in Spain. Deliberative discussion with 80 participants was conducted evaluating their views regarding public media. The central problem was the role that people feel the RTVE Corporation should play in the future. With that role in mind, participants were asked to evaluate the financial situation of public broadcasting in Spain. The new Financing Law of the RTVE Corporation, based on the immediate cessation of advertising, was passed in August 2009. According to the law, for every new service provided by RTVE, it should be assigned additional funding. It is not clear yet how this process will work in the future. 相似文献

This article charts 2 parallel movements in the communications sectors of the United Kingdom and Europe: the ascendancy of marketization policies within both the European Union and its major member states and accelerating convergence of the computing, telecommunications, and audiovisual industries. The contradictory character of policy at the European level is examined against the background of assertive pressure from the corporate sector for liberalization of regulatory regimes. Using data primarily from the United Kingdom, the struggle for survival of the public communications sector and the consequential difficulties of communications and social exclusion faced by lower income consumers are examined. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to explore the South Korean government's policy objectives for the Broadband Convergence Network (BcN) between 2004 and 2007. The BcN is envisioned as conduit for broadband content and applications. This paper uses generativity as a conceptual framework to determine whether the objectives for the BcN, based on a content analysis of policy documents and interviews with experts, empowered the network to sustain a generative critical information infrastructure. This study is designed to be useful for executives in the private sector, officials in government and academics in university settings who are interested in drawing insights from Korean experience to inform their own work. 相似文献

This research note presents an analysis of TV programming in south Korea over a period of five years. The paper is concerned with the changing face of public service broadcasting due to the effects of the new commercial situation. It includes a brief summary of Korea's TV history and a comparison of the programming strategies employed by the public broadcasting network and its commercial rivals. The author concludes by suggesting that Korean public broadcasting needs to reappraise its current response to the multi‐channel environment, and to develop a service aimed at promoting a sense of national community. 相似文献

Abstract Throughout the cultural institution sector, shifts in audience participation call for new ways to share knowledge and view partnerships both online and onsite. Increasingly, this “transformation in cultural communication” suggests that a new type of mutually beneficial exchange is required between audiences and museums; and that those acting as agents of cultural change must be cognizant of how a participatory culture will drive our future institutional missions. This paper offers two examples of how the implementation of strategic social media programs can drive online cultural exchange and create new connections with diverse communities. It presents a convergence of initiatives undertaken within the sector over the past five years while offering a frame through which to view future innovations. Based on research undertaken with multiple organizations, it recognizes that the time is right to merge existing innovations with strategically developed communication programs to achieve a demonstrable, verifiable basis for the value of our museums. 相似文献

Abstract The objective of this paper is to identify alternative models of regulation that address the problems and opportunities brought about by convergence. Regulatory convergence involves bringing together previously separate industry‐based regulations into a single legal and regulatory framework. Regulators need to consider different levels of and objectives for regulating sectors as well as overcome inconsistencies in regulation that result from traditional separation. These can result in regulatory arbitrage as companies try to choose the laws and bodies that most benefit them. Regulators also must deal with technological uncertainty and competition policies. There are five alternatives for regulating converging industries: status quo regulator, multi‐sector regulator, ICT regulator, coordination among regulators, and minimal regulation. Each of these represents different degrees of change that can be chosen based on circumstances including: competition, path dependency, perceptions about the environment, knowledge, and power. 相似文献

The ASEAN countries (Association of South East Asian Nations) represent a microcosm of countries in various stages of development. As such, they provide the opportunity to examine and compare telecommunications infrastructure development, investment, and regulatory policy trends similar to other countries. The recent moves towards privatization and increasing private participation in the telecommunications sector in the ASEAN region cover a diverse set of issues that similarly affect many other developing countries and newly industrializing economies. The telecommunications sector is different in each of the ASEAN countries and each must necessarily respond to its own social, political and economic needs. However, as a region, ASEAN provides an example, of the trends towards different forms of deregulation, liberalization of markets and privatization of the telecommunications authorities. 相似文献

Abstract Between 1996 and 2001 over $13 trillion dollars was invested in information and telecommunications industries based on the vision of expanding markets and a pro competitive law know as the Telecommunications Act of 1996 ("'96 Act"). Since 2001 investment has substantially shrunk along with expectations about growth and new opportunities in converging information, communications and entertainment ("ICE") industries. This paper identifies how stakeholders and governments made false assumptions about the near term future of telecommunications demand and the prospects for seamless convergence of information and telecommunications technologies and markets. The paper provides suggestions on how national legislatures and regulators should respond to current circumstances. 相似文献

New communication technologies have increased Europe's importation of foreign, especially U.S., broadcasting programs. This essay addresses the question and protection of cultural identity from a European perspective. Four subgoals of diversity are outlined as yardsticks for the appropriateness of protection. Various activities designed to deregulate European broadcasting may potentially increase or reduce diversity. The economic and political pressure to weaken the European trusteeship model of broadcasting is likely to be successful. 相似文献

Government and radio broadcasting stations have been debating the model of digital transmission to be adopted in Brazil, without having come to a consensus. The impasse is related to the technological characteristics of the available systems (IBOC, DRM, and DAB) that are not integrally adaptable to the model of radio broadcasting, to the regulatory laws, and to the rules of the radio market in the country. Tests done with IBOC reveal that the digital system does not provide the same coverage as a quality analogical AM radio. Other aspects are the technical conditions of the Brazilian broadcasting stations and their adaptability to a digital system: 37% of them still function with valve transmitters, most of them being between AM commercial and public radio stations. As they are broadcasting stations with few resources for investment in transistorized equipment, it will be necessary to create public policies of incentive for digitalization, which would collaborate toward the sustainability of the sector. The present study presents data from a sample of 750 stations, which corresponds to 96.45% of the profile of the Brazilian radio market, and integrates the data with national research. 相似文献

Since the introduction of AT&T's divestiture in the USA, the trend for privatization has reached Asia's telecommunications industry with varying results. National priorities, both political and social, have dictated the approach to telecommunications in the Asia‐Pacific region. This paper analyses and examines the recent policy changes in the NIEs, near NIEs and China and how these changes are introducing structural adjustments within the telecommunications sector. The importance of these policy adjustments to the pressures created by technological dynamism are explored concluding with an overview of the political economy of privatization of telecommunications supplies of basic and value‐added services. 相似文献

This introductory article covers a number of aspects of the information revolution in Asia. It presents the telecommunications industry as one invigorated by international market forces, in contrast to a broadcasting industry tempered by regional policies to preserve culture and values, and faced with difficulties in producing culturally relevant material. Recent moves towards international cooperation in standardizing technology and networks are examined, as well as the attempts to develop international laws for such muddy areas as transbordef broadcasting. It details the problems faced so far, and highlights some negative aspects of the information revolution that must be overcome. An assessment is also made, of the effect of advances in communication for developing countries, with a discussion of whether such technologies have a liberating effect, or an exploitative one. 相似文献

This article offers an analytical overview of pathbreaking U.S. telecommunications reform legislation, as a concrete first step in establishing new industry and regulatory paradigms for telecommunications. It describes key elements of the Act, contrasting them to the status quo ante, in the areas of competition, concentration, and the public interest. It concludes that, while the Act responds to economic, political and technological paradigm shifts, it continues to assert a prominent role for the state in articulating policy, and leaves open an important role for civil society in defining and implementing it terms. 相似文献
