From the Paper
"Deregulation is the process of removing restrictions on prices, products and entry conditions. During the past 20 years, deregulation has occurred in domestic air transportation, telephone service, interstate transport, and banking and financial services. Before deregulation, the government influenced the economic activity by determining prices, product standards and types. This was seen as a major disadvantage to the businesses as they had no control over the pricing of their products and thus competition was eliminated because the same product a business was selling was marked down as the same price. There are two types of regulations which are the rate of return regulation and Price Cap regulation. The rate of return regulation sets the price at a level that enables a regulated firm to earn a specified target percent return on its capital which means the profit earnt is fixed. Price Cap regulation is the recent replacement for the rate of return regulation as this type of regulation acts as a price ceiling that specifies the highest price that a firm is permitted to set. This is a small benefit for businesses as they have increased control over their pricing methods but still have a limit."

Abstract
This paper provides an examination of the impact of the deregulation process on Australian financial systems in general and the market shares of major institutions in particular. A summary of the research is provided in the conclusion.
From the Paper
"As a result of fundamental changes that have taken place since the 1980s, there are two distinct and comparatively new features of Australia's economy today. First, there has been a reluctant acceptance of the vital economic and strategic significance of the Asia-Pacific region and a sharper awareness of the opportunities to be gained there; second, in spite of some resistance in some quarters, Australia's corporate, financial, political, and bureaucratic cultures have steadfastly embraced a more rationalist economic philosophy that seemed to accept as inevitable a comprehensive globalization and deregulation of the nation's economy."

From the Paper
"The commercial banking and financial sectors of Japan and Mexico are compared. The commercial banking and financial sectors in both countries are privately (as opposed to governmentally) owned; however, government in each country exercises high levels of control over the commercial banking and financial sectors through regulatory action.
Deregulation in the Japanese financial system was initiated in the late-1970s. The process of financial liberalization in Japan has been slow and deliberate over the past 23 years. A major focus of the deregulation policy has been to improve the efficiency of Japanese corporate finance. The policy developments stemmed largely from pressures external to the Japanese domestic banking sector itself, such as the substantial increase in government debt as a result of changes in the flow of ..."

"The following research is on the subject of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978. Airlines in the United Stats are riding the crest of a wave of increased passenger travel the likes of which has not been seen since the introduction of the jet into commercial aviation in 1960. Passenger-miles are up, new orders for aircraft from both domestic and foreign manufacturers are up as the airlines replace their aging fleets and capitalize on new designs and new technology that allow them to fly more people on less fuel than ever before. And airline profits are up as well. To fly the new planes which carry people who have never flown before, the airlines are in a frantic scramble for new pilots, since it is also true that the "first generation" of World War II pilots is now retiring, and the airlines are wooing hundreds of pilots a month away from the ...

"REGULATION/DEREGULATION ISSUES
Munn v. Illinois
Munn v. Illinois [94 U.S. 13 (1876)] established a legal precedent related to both interstate commerce and private property rights in the United States. The State of Illinois enacted a law designed to protect both farmers and consumers by setting maximum charge for storing grain in privately owned elevators and warehouses. The enactment of the law occurred at the behest of the Grange movement, which was an organization that promoted farming interests. Another requirement of the Illinois law was that warehouse operations must obtain a license from the state to operate grain storage facilities.
Ira Munn violated both of the above-mentioned provisions of the Illinois law. Munn operated a grain storage facility in Chicago without ..."

Abstract
The paper argues that the Federal government?s policy towards deregulation had a dramatic impact on various industries. The paper primarily focuses on the airline, petroleum, trucking and banking industries. The paper continues, showing that deregulation was a big part of President Reagan?s economic policy. He saw over regulation as a contributing factor to the economic problems that the country was facing when he took office in 1981. The paper also examines how the deregulation policy has allowed industries to respond better to the market needs and operate more cost effectively.
From the Paper
"Labor unions have been opposed to deregulation because competition has forced down wage demands. Previously labor disputes were accepted and the airlines would use this to justify the CAB ordered fare increases. Labor costs have gone from 42 percent of operation costs to 34 percent and the revenue per employee ratio has increased."

Ethics and Energy Deregulation, 2008.
An analysis of whether the deregulation of the energy and in particular, the electricity sector can be completely ethical.

Abstract
This paper discusses the ethical considerations associated with the deregulation of energy, focusing on the electricity sector in the United States. The paper examines the issue from the perspective of both proponents (advantages) and critics (disadvantages) in order to attempt to ascertain if energy deregulation can be an ethical course of action.
From the Paper
"How can we reconcile these positions? Democratic, local control of power production is certainly a noble, even ethically important, goal. But if deregulation only results in more corporate control of energy production with less public oversight, it is certainly not an ethical choice. Perhaps the most ethical and rational path would be to remove government's monopolistic control while retaining the public's capacity to oversee the energy market. If policies were put into place regulate the actions of especially the major energy producers while encouraging the development of local, alternative power generation, then it might be possible to achieve the ideals of the deregulation proponents while avoiding the dangers of corporate corruption."

"CONSUMER EFFECTS OF AIRLINE DEREGULATION, AND EFFECTS ON COMPENSATION AND LABOR RELATIONS IN THE INDUSTRY
Introduction
Subsequent to the completion of the airline deregulation program almost 17 years, ago both the market structure and the ownership structure of the industry have been transformed. Deregulation brought about a rush of new airline companies into the industry. In 1978, the last full year of operation prior to the initiation of deregulation, there were 248 airline companies in the United States ("FAA Opens," 1985). By the end of the first full year of deregulation, there were 349 such companies.
By the end of the second full year of deregulation, however, some carriers-many old line-had failed or were on the verge of financial failure. By early 1983, the industry had ..."

Abstract
The writer takes an historical look at the way in which the government has eased its hold on the airline industry. The paper shows how this form of deregulation has led the airline industry, which employs nearly two million people, to be overwhelmed with competition and the lowering of prices.
From the Paper
"Economic deregulation has been described as ?? the state?s withdrawal of its legal powers to direct the economic conduct (pricing, entry and exit) of non-governmental bodies.? (Winston, 1993, quoting Stigler). Regulatory reform has become a significant trend in economic policy since the 1970s. The airline industry stands out as a significant example of this trend: formerly almost completely regulated, it has been and continues to go through a process of deregulation and review pending possible re-regulation at both the national and international level."

Abstract
The overturning of the Glass-Steagall Act has spawned numerous discussions and debates concerning the resulting effects. This paper reviews literature aimed at explaining the effects the FSMA has had on the values of commercial banks, investment banks, and thrifts, as well as the of effect of deregulation on corporate customers and the conflict of interest versus certification of value debates pertaining to commercial banks operating in the securities market.
From the Paper
"Studies done to date, in respect to the deregulation of commercial banks, are not sufficient and in some cases may have missed the boat. For instance, the study conducted by Czyrnik and Klein included thrift stocks (a variable of seemingly little importance) and excluded corporate customers. It would be interesting to see the results of a similar study concerning FSMA?s effect on the value of corporations who use investment banks compared to those who use commercial banks for underwriting IPOs. A study of this nature would serve well to examine the possible effects of commercial banks tying investment banking to credit offerings. Another possibility for a future study would be to interview investors with question regarding their perceptions concerning conflict of interest or certification of value that may or may not attribute to commercial banks engaging in underwriting securities."

From the Paper
"This research examines the deregulation of the air transportation industry in the United States. Specifically, this research addresses the question: Has airline deregulation been good or bad for the consumer?
The deregulation of the commercial airline industry in the US was initiated by the Carter Administration in 1978. The momentum was building for deregulation of the airline industry in the face of resistance by most of the minor and some of the major American airline companies. The primary reason for the unenthusiastic response to deregulation, on the part of the smaller airlines, was a fear that the larger airlines would (1) enter the profitable medium- ... "

From the Paper
"Many people are enamored of the idea of deregulation as a way to counter the growth of government and the perception that government is wasteful, intrusive, and inefficient. Deregulation was touted as a cure-all for Big Government during the Reagan administration, though one of the major acts of deregulation took place prior to that during the Carter administration with deregulation of the airline industry. Deregulation has also been instituted for other industries, such as finance and communications, and it has been found not to work as intended. In the deregulated environment, the consumer feels less protected and less safe. What may have been intended as a means of simplifying the business environment usually complicates it, as has happened with deregulation of the communications industries, and the consumer is left feeling confused by the change."
