Airline deregulation is a failure, conclude Professors Dempsey and Goetz. They assault the conventional wisdom in this provocative book, finding that the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978, championed by a profound political movement which also advocated the deregulation of the bus, trucking, rail, and pipeline industries, failed to achieve the promises of its proponents.

This handbook is a reference work providing a comprehensive, objective and comparative overview of Space Law.
The global space economy reached $330 billion in 2015, with a growth rate of 9 per cent vis-a-vis the previous year. Consequently, Space Law is changing and expanding expeditiously, especially at the national level. More laws and regulations are being adopted by space-faring nations, while more countries are adapting their Space Laws and regulations related to activities in outer space. More regulatory bodies are being created, while more regulatory diversity (from public...

The "Routledge Handbook of Public Aviation Law "is the first book to incorporate a comprehensive analysis of Public Aviation Law principally international, but also domestic law in a comparative context in a single volume.

This is supplemented by various Annexes (promulgated by the International Civil Aviation Organization) and Conventions and Protocols (promulgated by States in diplomatic conferences)....
