Holding Patterns: Air Transport and Foreign Policy in the Netherlands
Although air transport is indispensable to modern society, we know little about the diplomatic efforts that establish airline services. Nonetheless, aviation features prominently in the spectrum of international relations: in conflicts between states, for example, the suspension of landing rights is one of the first acts to symbolize serious discord. In tracing the unique cooperation between government and industry, this historical study underscores aviation as a prominent, but understudied topic in Dutch foreign relations.
Friesische Studien III
Der vorliegende Band Friesische Studien III enthält die Referate von sechs Sprachwissenschaftlern aus den Niederlanden und Deutschland anläßlich des dritten Föhrer Symposiums zur Friesischen Philologie, das vom 11.–12. April 1996 in Alkersum auf Föhr stattfand. Die Beiträge befassen sich mit den besonderen Beziehungen des Friesischen zum Niederdeutschen und Niederländischen, unter anderem mit der Syntax des Stadtfriesischen in der niederländischen Provinz Friesland sowie mit den ostfriesisch-groningschen Sprachbeziehungen und der Rolle des Niederdeutschen bei den Saterfriesen. Weitere Artikel geben Einblick in die Geschichte des Niederländischen im nordfriesischen Küstenraum und erörtern die Frage der typologischen Einordnung des Nordfriesischen sowie Spezifika des Kodewechsels und der Entlehnung im Niederdeutschen und Nordfriesischen.

Historia mínima de la aviación comercial
Al terminar la Gran Guerra en 1919, William L. Mitchel —teórico y padre de la aviación militar en Estados Unidos— vaticinó que los pasajeros aéreos iban a ser tan comunes como los de trenes y que las distancias entre grandes ciudades serían calculadas en horas de vuelo en lugar de en kilómetros. En 1936, John A. Wilson, jefe de Aviación Civil de Canadá, acuño el término World’s Airways System (Sistema Mundial de Caminos Aéreos), del cual afirmó que representaría una revolución en el transporte. Tales vaticinios son los hilos conductores de este libro. Esta obra muestra cómo nació y se desarrolló este campo de la aviación en el mundo, así como los cambios que experimentaron su legislación y su regulación. El lector podrá apreciar la evolución y competencia entre las aerolíneas por los mercados mundiales, desde 1919 hasta la situación actual producto de la pandemia de covid-19. Igualmente, el libro recapitula la evolución de la tecnología en materia de aeronaves de transporte de pasajeros, desde el motor de combustión interna hasta el turborreactor.

This volume identifies the major drivers of this process and explains why some firms and industries moved to other parts of world while others did not. Relocation was not ...
