Abstract
Why did the Federal Communications Commission deregulate cable television between 1974 and 1980? This article attempts to answer this question through a comparative consideration of three theoretical explanations: the policy discourse explanation, the policy systems explanation, and the organizational capacity explanation. Ultimately, the article concludes that none of these perspectives, standing alone, adequately explains the FCC's deregulation of cable television. The article also provides a more integrative explanation for policy change.
