This dissertation described the diffusion of mobile communications (MC) in China and considered related social, policy, and economic/marketing issues. Data were collected using personal interviews and by reviewing documents in Beijing in early 1994. This study found: (1) the diffusion of MC started with military applications in the 1950s and entered private communications networks run by various ministries in 1974. Pagers and cellular phones have diffused rapidly into China's public networks since the mid-1980s; (2) State institutions involved in diffusing MC are the Ministries of Telecommunications, Electronic Industry, Energy, and Railway, as well as the Army. Several multinationals and Hong Kong telecom businesses also play important roles in the diffusion; (3) the driving forces of the diffusion of MC are market demand, shortage of wired telephony, emerging competition in this high-profit industry, a national desire for technological modernism, and technology transfer activities of multinationals; (4) important aspects of the diffusion process include personal phone use paid for by institutions, use for status by the new rich, preference for handsets rather than car-phones, import dependence, and a lack of concern for MC's social consequences; and (5) stakeholders' concerns center on fair competition, spectrum management, standardization, and industry policy-making. The study concluded that the diffusion of MC in China depended on foreign technology transfer, was driven by domestic market mechanisms and social factors, and has led to changes in China's society, telecom infrastructure, and policy-making process.Subjects--Topical Terms:
