This book tells a story about the ‘real’ unification of East and West Germany in a particular sector; telecommunication. It uses a case study approach to explain why the East German telecom sector was ‘monopolised’ by the West German telecom industry. It shows that the dynamics of West German telecom evolution in the 1980s aiming at a more competitive environment virtually came to a halt with unification in 1990. Innovative and competitive solutions for the modernisation of the outdated East German network were postponed by policy makers and managers of DBP Telecom. Meanwhile, other European countries and national telecom service companies were moving further toward more competitive environments leaving German consumers to pay the current and future price of monopolisation.
