[HTML version] [pdf version]

The authors use benchmarking and diffusion analysis to describe the changes within the telecommunications industry in a particular region to draw conclusions about telecom policy. By benchmarking telecom, they can compare the focal country's telecom infrastructure -- in this case, Poland -- to that of other countries and draw conclusions concerning the effectiveness of its telecom policies. They also use a basic diffusion model to draw policy implications concerning the pace of telecommunications infrastructure development. In this study, they compare Poland's telecom development at several levels to both its Central and Eastern European neighbors and the European Union and draw some conclusions from their findings.
