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. 000025396 588__ $$aTitle from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 08 Oct 2015). - Includes papers presented at an international conference entitled "Telecommunications and Audio-visual Services in the Context of the WTO: Today and Tomorrow", held in Geneva in November 2001. 000025396 61020 $$aWorld Trade Organization$$vCongresses. 000025396 61026 $$aOrganisation mondiale du commerce$$vCongrès. 000025396 650_0 $$aData transmission systems$$xLaw and legislation$$vCongresses. 000025396 650_4 $$aAudiovisual 000025396 650_4 $$aTelecommunications 000025396 650_6 $$aTéléinformatique$$xDroit$$vCongrès. 000025396 650_6 $$aTélécommunications$$xDroit$$vCongrès. 000025396 7001_ $$aLuff, David,$$d1968- 000025396 7001_ $$aGeradin, Damien,$$eHerausgeber. 000025396 7001_ $$aGéradin, Damien,$$eeditor. 000025396 898__ $$a0025 000025396 905__ $$aHeBIS$$b<77/018> Universit?t Mainz, Fachbereich 03, Rechts- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften 000025396 942__ $$cMON$$jC 383 GER.W 000025396 952__ $$w2009-09-24$$p2009-0756$$r141.00$$u39305$$bMAIN$$10$$kC 383 GER.W$$v2009-09-24$$zLibrary $$70 000025396 980__ $$aBIB 000025396 999__ $$c27751$$d27751
