520 3 _aIn America's state houses small yet powerful collections of policy leaders, in the public and private sector, are guiding the initial conceptin and early implementation of advanced communication networks. This article investigates how the beliefs of leading actors collide to produce two distinctive state networks. Rather than focus exclusively on the simple dichotomous "yes" or ""no" decision regarding the adoption or nonadoption of an advanced telecommunications system, like a statewide information higway, this article focuses on the critical role of debate imbedded within that decision. Analysis and presentation of interviews and extensive literature reviews of the development of information highways, in North Carolina and Iowa, provide the setting for the generation of hypotheses suggesting the future trajectory of technology policy-making. While praised for their bold, visionary leadership and innovative system designs, the accounts of network development in these two American states also provide a cautionary tale for other subnational government and for private sector telecommunications firms interested in the business of building public sector information highways
