      abstract = {This edited collection consolidates research on the  current and future perspectives of international trade law  applicable to telecommunications services and audiovisual  services in a context of convergence. It is divided into  three main parts. The first part analyses the current  regulatory framework applicable to telecommunications  services in the context of the WTO, including the  controversial issues of accounting rates and international  competition rules. The second part discusses and analyses  the current regulatory framework applicable to audiovisual  services. The third part analyses convergence from  different angles, including an explanation of convergence  in technical terms, as well as reviewing the legal and  economic consequences of convergence for trade in  telecommunications and audiovisual services. This research  lead the editors to summarize the findings made in the  chapters and to draw a tentative set of issues to be  discussed in the context of the Doha Round of  negotiations.},
