Abstract
En este trabajo se estima un modelo para la demanda del tráfico telefónico que sale de España hacia un grupo de países de África y Oriente. Al tráfico hacia este grupo de países le llamamos tráfico de muy larga distancia por las altas tarifas que se les aplican, a pesar de que algunos de dichos países no están geográficamente muy distantes. En este estudio se usa un marco teórico que tiene en cuenta las características específicas del tráfico internacional y las relaciones socioeconómicas entre España y los países de la muestra.
This study estimates a demand model for the outgoing telephone calling from Spain to a group of African and Oriental countries. The traffic to those countries is called very long distance calling because of the high tariffs applicable to all of them even when some of them are geographically not very distant. In this study a theoretical framework is used which takes into account the specific characteristics of the international long distance services and the socio-economic relationships between Spain and this group of countries.
