Abstract
En el presente trabajo se analizan los objetivos, la secuencia y la naturaleza del proceso de liberalización y privatización de las telecomunicaciones adoptado en Guatemala. Asimismo, se plantean las características de esta reforma y los resultados obtenidos, además de evaluar las condiciones de competencia en este mercado después de una década de apertura. También se identifican los aspectos que han limitado un mayor dinamismo de la actividad y las implicaciones que tendrá el DR-CAFTA para el desarrollo del sector. En el documento se termina reconociendo que los resultados de esta reforma para Guatemala han sido muy beneficiosos, pero existen preocupaciones sobre la competencia y el dinamismo que ésta podría tener a futuro, dada la institucionalidad jurídica y sectorial con que se cuenta en la actualidad.
