The thermally driven confinement-deconfinement transition exhibited by lattice quantum electrodynamics in two space dimensions is re-examined in the context of the statistical gauge-fields common to anyon superconductors and to spin-liquids. Particle-hole excitations in both systems are bound by a confining string at temperatures below the transition temperature $T_c$. We argue that $T_c$ coincides with the actual critical temperature for anyon superconductivity. The corresponding specific-heat contribution, however, shows a {\it smooth} peak just below $T_c$ characteristic of certain high-temperature superconductors.
