In recent years, a new dimension of International Relations has begun to emerge. It involves not only the traditional actors of diplomacy, but also fosters dialogue between states and the private tech industry. This new form of interaction is referred to as “Tech Diplomacy” or (increasingly) Techplomacy. This emergent way of practicing International Relations was spurred by the unprecedented influence induced by the giant Technological Companies. It seeks to engage those companies while taking into consideration the new power structures they shape, the geopolitics shifts they engender and the perspectives of the power games revolving around key technologies these firms own. In this paper, we shed light on the need to leap into a new era of conducting International Relations, recognizing the obsolescence of some of the existing diplomatic frameworks and embracing a complex reality for which we lack the codes. Among the Critical and Emerging Technologies, we case-study LEO satellite Internet, as an example. Its geopolitical implications are studied, some of the challenges that this technology carries are exposed and some of the limitations of the existing diplomatic tools are addressed in order to highlight the need for Tech Diplomacy. Consequently, a new way for practicing International Relations is put forward, steered by a new generation of diplomats who need to engage satellite internet industry in a complete different manner, and a roadmap for tech diplomats is propounded for the purpose of ensuring their country's national security, economic competitiveness and technological sovereignty.

The global semiconductor supply chain faces unprecedented risks because Taiwan plays a critical role in advanced chip manufacturing within this supply chain and geopolitical tensions in the Taiwan Strait have increasingly escalated. In the current study, we applied the tabletop exercise and scenario analysis methods and determined that if China were to attempt to take control of Taiwan, it would most likely employ a quarantine method.

We assessed the preparedness of Taiwan's semiconductor ecosystem, with a particular focus on the preparedness of the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, to respond to a quarantine scenario. Our analysis revealed that Taiwan's supply chain would be particularly vulnerable to a quarantine initiated before 2027. In terms of addressing this vulnerability, high relocation costs, challenges in training skilled workers, and limited natural gas reserves render diversification or stockpiling strategies impractical in the short term.

Instead, we propose the “triad” cross-platform model in which the United States and its allies implement deterrence and communication measures to reduce the likelihood of a Chinese quarantine in the short term. These multilateral and minilateral platforms could be ideal for incorporating geopolitical risk assessments into their agenda and addressing the risks in the supply chain. For long-term challenges, this cross-platform model could supplement strategies like diversification and stockpiling, consolidating resilience in global SSC.

This paper examines the integration of Emergency Management (EM) frameworks into telecommunications regulation to address climate-driven disasters. EM principles—prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery—offer a structured approach to strengthen telecom networks and manage crises. By analyzing international practices, the study identifies critical gaps in funding, coordination, and regulatory alignment, highlighting opportunities to align telecom policy with EM planning. The findings provide actionable recommendations to foster cross-sector collaboration, promote regulatory flexibility, and enhance infrastructure resilience in an increasingly interconnected and disaster-prone world.

This study investigates the impacts of 23 USDA Community Connect grant projects approved in fiscal years 2017–2019 on measured broadband download and upload speeds during 2019–2022 using program data, Ookla Speedtest® data, and other data. We combine matching and difference-in-difference regressions to estimate causal impacts, using ordinary least squres and two alternative estimators - the Heckman model and extremal quantile regression - to address potential sample selection bias. We find that these projects had a positive impact on upload speed but not download speed, increasing upload speeds in project areas in the preferred extremal quantile regression model using the Mahalanobis matched sample by an average of about 28 percent across the study periods. Our qualitative findings are robust to variations in the study sample, regression model, inclusion of high-dimensional fixed effects or random intercepts and coefficients, and other variations. We find larger impacts on upload speed of projects that supported fiber-to-the-household than other projects and larger impacts in some geographic regions. Based on the preferred model results, we estimate that the program cost of increasing measured upload speed through these Community Connect projects averaged about $1300 per Mbps per household.

Customer churn remains a significant area of concern in the telecommunications sector due to its high prevalence. As Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) gains traction, the field is witnessing heightened competition, especially with the integration of 5G technology, which serves dual purposes for cellular communications and FWA. This research delves into a comprehensive analysis of risk factors that impact churn via Random Survival Forests, the Cox regression model, and Kaplan-Meier Survival Plots. Our results indicate that fiber, sales zone (i.e., brand presence), age, speed, and discounts are some of the more important variables with regard to the cumulative hazard ratio. Although discounts were effective in many sales zones, their impact was diminished for more expensive internet services. The insights garnered provide a foundational basis for telecom providers to devise robust strategies to curtail customer churn over time, ensuring sustained growth and customer satisfaction in the burgeoning FWA market.

Telecommunications policy in the United Kingdom has had long periods of relatively minor changes, interspersed by short bursts of major changes. The electoral success of the Conservative Party in 1979 opened one of these critical junctures, enabling the creation of a regulatory state that persists today. The subsequent successful export of that regulatory governance model to the European Community (later Union) began a succession of additions and modifications. A smaller scale critical juncture came with the 2003 decision of a new regulator to review the rules for local access networks, leading to the separation of Openreach from BT, which persists today. A much grander critical juncture came with Brexit, severing connections with European Union legal, policy and regulatory processes, including those in telecommunications. Critical junctures can be a useful tool in analysing changes in telecommunications policy.

英国的电信政策长期以来变化相对较小，中间夹杂着短暂的重大变革。1979 年保守党在选举中的成功开启了其中的一个关键时刻，从而建立了一个持续至今的监管国家。随后，这一监管治理模式成功输出到欧洲共同体（后来的欧盟），开始了一系列的补充和修改。2003 年，新监管机构决定审查本地接入网络的规则，导致 Openreach 与英国电信分离，这是一个较小规模的关键时刻。英国脱欧则是一个更大的关键时刻，它切断了与欧盟法律、政策和监管进程的联系，包括电信领域的联系。关键时刻可以成为分析电信政策变化的有用工具。

Advanced economies continue to adopt and embed digitalization into their everyday activities. One may ponder; how does a significant digitalization upgrade affect developing economies? To answer this question and highlight the economic & environmental effects of digitalization in a developing economy, this study adopts the singly-country dynamic Energy and Environment Integrated computable general equilibrium model (EEICGE) with a 5-year gradual digitalization policy plan design in Nigeria, a developing economy. The shock simulation comparative statics show digitalization-driven investment opportunities in Nigeria and reveal that digitalization increases productivity and national output levels while leading to a substantial decline in the general price levels in the Nigerian economy. It further strengthens Nigeria's international trade revenue and makes its goods and services cheaper in the international (market) communities. Digitalization of the Nigerian economy also results in a structural shift and decline in on-site labour equilibrium demand/supply that is substituted mainly with capital (machines) but increases online entrepreneurial labour services such as online training sessions/classes, content creations like comedy skits, online sells & delivery services, online skill acquisition sessions etc., aimed at increasing agents' labour income. Thus, digitalization increases the economic agents' consumption, income, and welfare while availing the rich household cohorts, firms, and governments the chance to take advantage of the digitalization-driven investment opportunities financed through decreases in consumption budgets. In the end, this study presents pieces of evidence that favour and support substantial digitalization upgrades in developing economies like Nigeria.

The advancement of digital technologies has led to the evolution of media content delivery methods. In particular, OTT services have experienced an explosive growth in the video content industry. The skyrocketing data traffic increases the burden on ISPs’ infrastructure, and the discourse on CPs’ payment of network usage fees has emerged. In digitalization, data traffic will inevitably increase, and related conflicts are expected to occur worldwide. Accordingly, it is significant to review the case of Netflix-SK Broadband in South Korea, the world’s significant legal dispute over the network usage fees. This study examines network usage fees and network neutrality as concepts relevant to the case, traces the litigation process, identifies the reasons for the settlement of the lawsuit, and discusses policy implications. This study suggests that the issue of network usage fees could become a trade issue and that a regulatory framework needs to be evolved accordingly. This study contributes to understanding the issue of network usage fees that will be increasingly important for global digital industries. As such, it can present a reference to the telecommunications and content industries and even to digital trade for their future debate and development.

This paper proposes a multidimensional framework for Metaverse Identity, addressing its definition, guiding principles, and critical challenges. Metaverse Identity is conceptualized as a user’s digital self, encompassing personal attributes, data footprints, social roles, and economic elements. To elucidate its core characteristics and implications, this framework introduces two guiding principles: Equivalence and Alignment and Fusion and Expansiveness. The first principle advocates for consistency between metaverse and real-world identities in behavioral norms and social standards, ensuring rights protection and establishing conduct guidelines. The second emphasizes the deep integration and transformative evolution of metaverse identities, enabling them to transcend real-world constraints, meet diverse needs, and foster inclusivity. Together, two principles serve as complementary pillars, balancing ethical integration with dynamic co-evolution. Building on this foundation, the study identifies five critical challenges: interoperability, legal boundaries, privacy and identity management, risks from deepfakes and synthetic identities, and identity fragmentation impacting psychological well-being. To address these challenges, strategic recommendations are offered to guide stakeholders. By constructing this framework, the study fills a key theoretical gap, advances systematic research, and provides a foundation for policies and governance strategies to address the complexities of metaverse identities in a rapidly evolving digital domain.

This paper uses country-level observations to evaluate the impact of new market entry of mobile network operators on the unit prices of voice and data services, average retail revenue of mobile telecommunication services, and consumption of voice, SMS, and data services. The study uses data from the 2015 market entry of a new operator in Slovakia to estimate the impact on end users and operators. Using difference-in-differences and synthetic control methods, I find that new market entry on the mobile market decreased ARPU and voice unit prices in the short term, but increased the unit prices of data services.
