Sommario/riassunto

This book addresses the fundamental issues underlying the debate over electric power regulation and deregulation. After decades of the



presumption that the electric power industry was a natural monopoly, recent times have seen a trend of deregulation followed by panicked re-regulation. This important book critically analyses this controversial area from a legal and economic perspective.
