Local government broadband policies for areas with limited Internet access
Despite their wide diffusion in developed countries, broadband services are still limited in areas where providing them is not profitable for private telecom carriers. To address this, many local governments in Japan have implemented broadband deployment projects subsidized by the national governmen...

To address this, many local governments in Japan have implemented broadband deployment projects subsidized by the national government. In this paper, we discuss local government broadband policies based on survey data collected from municipalities throughout the country. With the support of national promotion policies, broadband services were rapidly introduced to most local municipalities in Japan during the 2000s. Local government deployment policies helped to reduce the number of areas with no broadband access. A business model based on the Indefeasible Right of Use (IRU) contract between a private telecom carrier and a local government has been developed in recent years. Even local governments without the technical capacity to operate a broadband business can introduce broadband services into their territory using the IRU business model. En dépit de leur large diffusion dans les pays développés, les services haut débit sont encore limités dans les zones où leur distribution n’est pas rentable pour les opérateurs télécom privés. Pour suppléer à cela, de nombreuses administrations territoriales au Japon ont mis en œuvre des projets de déploiement subventionnés par le gouvernement national. Nous abordons dans cet article les politiques locales pour le haut débit sur la base de données d’enquête recueillies auprès de municipalités à travers le pays. Avec l’appui de politiques nationales de promotion, les services à haut débit ont rapidement été introduits dans la plupart des collectivités au Japon dans les années 2000. Ces politiques de déploiement ont contribué à réduire le nombre de régions n’ayant pas accès au haut débit. Un modèle d’affaires basé sur un contrat de droit imprescriptible d’utilisation (IRU) entre un opérateur privé et un gouvernement local a été développé au cours des dernières années. Même les autorités locales sans capacité technique pour exploiter le haut débit, peut introduire des services sur le territoire en utilisant le modèle d’affaires IRU. |
