The article contains a review of those views which had paved the
way for a critical attitude toward the concept of functioning of
the public utilities sector dominating In US economic theory and
practice and growing IncreasingI у more intensive since the late
fifties. The main emphasis has been placed In the article on the
role of the pricing mechanism, which Is a crucial element of this
concept. The author intends to prove that two factors lay at the
foundations of the critical attitude and ensuing demand for
"commercialization"of this mechanism. These factors were: a conviction
about failures of the previous price-regulation practice
(In the light of theoretical assumptions) becoming more and more
common, and development of theoretical studies on assumptions and
consequences of the state intervention in the price-fixing process.
