N2 - The Israeli telecommunications industry has recently undergone significant changes. One of the most important changes was the decision to establish a cable television (CATV) industry in the country. The decision of the government not to play an active role in the development and provision of CATV represented a significant departure from past practice. This paper describes the development of the CATV industry in Israel and evaluates how well the evolution of the industry has served the public interest.
