Session 3 looks at the telecommunications rules at the international level. This entails an analysis of the law and policies of the international telecommunication union (itu), which happens to be the oldest intergovernmental organisation, as well as an enquiry into the rules related to satellite communications. We will also explore how the communications rules have changed over time and how new regulatory models, which move away from the traditional inter-national cooperation, have emerged.
