It discusses how Japan has addressed a variety of policy challenges ranging from traditional regulatory issues, such as the provision of a universal service, to the latest tasks, including the promotion of cutting-edge technologies. Japan is a global leader in information and communication technologies (ICT). In addition to technological advances, an impressive nationwide optical-fiber and advanced mobile network infrastructure has been developed, which has boosted the economy and benefited society. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) has played an important role in ICT deployment. Japan has a unique ICT policy framework that does not separate regulation and promotion, unlike many other countries, which have an independent regulator. However, since relatively little information has been provided in English, it has been difficult to learn much about Japan?s policies. Written by specialists from MIC, industry and academia, this is the first collaborative work to provide a comprehensive discussion of Japan?s ICT policies, allowing readers to gain an understanding of the topic. 410 0$aAdvances in Information and Communication Research,$x2524-3322 ;$v1 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aPublic policy 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpatial economics 606 $aIndustrial Organization$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31010 606 $aR & D/Technology Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W43000 606 $aPublic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aPublic policy. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpatial economics. 615 14$aIndustrial Organization. 615 24$aR & D/Technology Policy. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aRegional/Spatial Science. 676 $a384.31 702 $aMitomo$b Hitoshi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373880403321 996 $aTelecommunications Policies of Japan$92013073 997 $aUNINA
