Governing the Postal Service

By Gregory J. Sidak

Book Overview

This essential collection tackles the pressing question of whether the US Postal Service can survive in a world reshaped by fax machines, telecommunications, and private delivery competition, as leading economists and legal scholars, assembled by Gregory J. Sidak and AEI's Project on Postal Regulation, dissect postal monopoly, governance, regulation, and privatization to reveal how outdated management structures are holding back one of America's oldest public institutions, offering a blueprint for reform drawn from the lessons of deregulation in telecommunications and energy.

Six articles contribute to the attention on the U.S. Postal Service in response to advances in telecommunications and communications and new thinking about regulated industries.
