Competition and Regulation in Network Industries (CRNI)

Competition and Regulation in Network Industries (CRNI) is a respected international journal that publishes scholarly research on the competitive dynamics and regulatory challenges facing network industries — sectors where infrastructure plays a central role in economic activity and public services. The journal adopts an interdisciplinary approach, welcoming contributions that combine economic analysis, legal frameworks, policy perspectives and engineering insights to address how markets operate under regulation and competition. Topics include market liberalization, regulatory governance, competition law, infrastructure investment incentives, pricing and access regulation, institutional design, and the effects of digital innovation on traditional industries. CRNI seeks to bridge theoretical rigor with practical relevance, making it valuable for academics, policy-makers, regulators and industry practitioners. It covers both traditional network sectors (e.g., electricity, telecoms, transport) and emerging digital platforms that exhibit network effects. With quarterly issues, the journal showcases original research articles, case studies, and policy analyses that advance understanding of how competitive forces interact with regulatory mechanisms in complex socio-technical systems, aiming to inform better governance and efficient regulatory outcomes in infrastructure-intensive markets.
