• Resumen

  • This article studies the policy of the Dutch government regarding the introduction of HDTV in the Netherlands. Utilizing a literature study and interviews with government officials, it shows that government choices are not always in line with the official neo-liberal policy, but are partly based on non-ideological,pragmatic or organizational factors. The findings of this case study challenge the presumption that policy choices made by government officials are based on rational and strategic considerations.
