Unintended Consequences
Regulatory Expectations Get a Reality Check: Boeing, Chevron, and Antitrust
Theory is elegant, but even the most well-designed and well-intentioned theory of regulation may not survive the acid test of reality.

Hazlett argues for an emergent, Hayekian approach to policy toward the internet rather than trying to design it from the top down and for an increased use of exchangeable property rights in allocating spectrum.
