本文考虑了电信业的垂直结构，考察了私有化对公共企业的福利效应，即公共企业提供上游市场的基本网络服务，并在混合的下游市场与私人的、独立的公司竞争。结果表明，独立竞争对手的成本优势提高了私有化后的福利水平。还讨论了电信业私有化进程中的几个相关和当前的政策问题。(JEL“L50，D42)”版权所有，2006年西方经济协会国际版。
This article considers the vertical structure of the telecommunications industry and examines the welfare effects of privatization on the public enterprise, where the public enterprise supplies the essential network service of the upstream market and competes against private, independent firms in a mixed downstream market. It is shown that the cost advantage of the independent rivals improves welfare postprivatization. Several relevant and current policy issues on the process of privatization in the telecommunications industry are also discussed.
