The Law and Policy of Air Space and Outer Space
This is a policy oriented and comparatively oriented textbook on air and space law for students and practitioners. It covers the history and development in air and space law; their interrelationships with the law of the seas and the law of Antartica; institutions working in the field of air and space law; sovereignty in national penal air law; private international air law, especially liability law; and public and private space law Much attention is devoted to the law of air commerce: bilateral air services agreements; inter-airline co-operation; the effect of competition, antitrust and European Union law; deregulation, privatization and commercialization of air transport; ownership and control of airlines, and airline alliances; multilateralisation of air transport; and congestion and environmental controls. The last chapter of the book briefly deals with the legal aspects of commercial outer space application. Increasingly, air transport, both in fact and in law, is becoming an ordinary industry like any other and is being treated as such. Rapidly, commercial outer space activities are being privatized and commercialized.
Public International Law in the Airspace of the High Seas
In 1968, the American scholar John Cobb Cooper stated that too little attention has been given to the legal control of flight above the high seas which cover a large percentage of the earth's surface. With certain notable exceptions this has remained true despite the acknowledged commercial, strategic and environmental significance of the airspace over the high seas.
Freedom of Overflight
Freedom of overflight is in large part uncontroversial. However, several recent international disputes and subsequent scrutiny of the exercise of coastal State jurisdiction in international airspace have highlighted the problematic legal nature of this freedom – namely, how a State’s ‘creeping jurisdiction’ may encroach upon the rights of other States. This groundbreaking book examines in depth the ambiguous areas at the nexus of air law and the law of the sea with respect to the balance between coastal State jurisdiction and freedom of overflight, thus providing greater legal certainty regarding State actions involving overflight in international airspace. The author identifies and ...
An Introduction to Air Law
An Introduction to Air Law offers a comprehensive and up-to-date view of all the main components making up this interesting and topical branch of international law. the material, spread over ten chapters, includes items such as liability of the carrier, insurance, product liability, sovereignty in airspace, offenses such as hijacking, and assistance and salvage. The main themes of the book are the so-called Warsaw System and the Chicago Convention on Civil Aviation, being the two pillars of support of the present-day aviation legislation. The text of this edition has been adapted considerably in view of recent events and current developments. A number of relevant new cases has been added. An index by subject and an extensive bibliography complete the volume.
Rights in Air Space
A contribution to an understanding of air law in time of war as well as in time of peace.
Introduction to Air Law
The world of aviation has moved on rapidly since the appearance of the ninth edition of this pre-eminent resource five years ago. Those developments pertain to market access and market behaviour by air carriers, including competition, new perceptions of safety and security, among others, in relation to transparency of accident investigation and cybersecurity, case law in the area of airline liability, with new cases from the United States, product liability and insurance, the United Kingdom, and elsewhere, the growing importance of environmental concerns, the rights and obligations of passengers, also in the context of ‘unruly’ passengers, and innovative methods for financing aircraft. S...
Air Navigation Law
The aviation community, in which the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the Civil Air Navigation Services Organization (CANSO) play leading roles, is hard at work in bringing aviation into the 21st Century. In doing so, the United States and Europe have taken proactive steps forward in introducing modernization, particularly in moving towards more efficient air traffic management systems within NextGen and SESAR. Elsewhere, in the fields of personnel licensing, rules of the air, accident investigation and aeronautical charts and information, significant strides are being made in moving from mere regulation to implementatio...
Sovereignty and Jurisdiction in Airspace and Outer Space
Sovereignty and jurisdiction are legal doctrines of a complex nature, which have been subject to differing interpretations by scholars in legal literature. The tridimensionality of state territory recognised under customary international law subsists until the present but there are other territories that do not or cannot belong to any state or political entity which also must be accounted for in legal theory. The issues surrounding sovereignty and jurisdiction are likely to become ever more pressing as globalisation, growing pressure on resources and the need for energy and national security become acute, and the resolution of special delimitation disputes seems likely to become a vital ques...
The Use of Airspace and Outer Space for all Mankind in the 21st Century
The very nature of international air transportation and outer space activities means that they have an international perspective. This is more evident today than at any time in the past, due to the intensification of trans-boundary trade, the internationalization of the division of work and the acceleration of technological progress. The Asian Institute of Air and Space Law, the Graduate School of Law, Soochow University, Taipei, the International Institute of Air and Space Law, Leiden University, and the Institute of Air and Space Law, McGill University, have instituted international conferences in order to provide a world platform for eminent specialists and scholars. The Tokyo Conference,...
How High the Sky?
In How High the Sky?, Thomas Gangale explores the oldest and most intractable controversy in space law: how far up does national airspace go, and where does the international environment of outer space begin?
