Telecommunications is one of the fastest growing markets in Estonia. Of the three Baltic States, research has shown that Estonia, while the smallest, has made by far the most successful foray into the wireless communication arena. Economic and public policy within the former Soviet Union had left Balkan communication infrastructure in disarray, and liberalization of the Estonian telecom sector was necessary for the country’s bid for EU membership. This paper will discuss the literature addressing Estonia’s leap into twenty-first century communication technology, with its savvy bypass of obsolete communication infrastructure paradigms inherited from the former Soviet Union.
