Part of a series on policies associated with
industry convergence, Long-Term Restructuring, lays out two approaches for
restructuring regulatory rules for connections between networks, mergers,
and competition. The first, called "layered", sets a framework that
applies to debates over interconnection as the telecommunications, cable
TV, and Internet industries merge. The second, called "integrated"
presents an alternative approach where each company has complete control
(vertical integration). These approaches set a framework for debates over
facilities-based competition.
