After three decades of deregulation in the electricity, gas delivery, and telecom industries, Professor Paul W. MacAvoy concludes that deregulation has failed. In his latest book, The Unsustainable Costs of Partial Deregulation, MacAvoy explores how we arrived at a system of partial deregulation, why it doesn't work, and what policies could now encourage competition and improve market efficiencies.
Paul W. MacAvoy is the Williams Brothers Professor Emeritus of Management Studies and former dean of the Yale School of Management. He served as a member of the Council of Economic Advisers in the Ford administration, and is the author of fifteen books, including The Natural Gas Market: Sixty Years of Regulation and Deregulation, published by Yale University Press. Join us for what promises to be an enlightening evening with fellow alumni and one of Yale's most well-known professors.
