El autor nos presenta una visión económica de corte sólidamente ortodoxo con la cual uno puede no estar siempre de acuerdo. Sin embargo, en esta compilación destacan dos aspectos que justifican su lectura aun para aquellos que busquen ideas y soluciones más heterodoxas. Por una parte, el autor ofrece un recuento sumamente informado, coherente y perceptivo de un periodo crucial de la historia económica reciente de México, que vale la pena para todos recordar, sin importar creencias o convicciones personales. Por otra parte, el tema general de los escritos, el alcance e instrumentación del papel del Estado en el desarrollo económico de México, se ha vuelto más relevante que nunca en este momento en que el Estado mexicano atraviesa nuevamente una crisis de identidad al prepararse para un nuevo sexenio.
This book provides an overview of the aviation sector by focusing on all major aspects embedded in the environment (subsystems) and the market of aviation. The book explains the linkages between subsystems politics, society, technology, economy, environment, and regulation, and how these subsystems influence each other and the market. The book starts by describing the aviation system, then focuses on the supply side and the demand side of the system and in a final part focuses on steering and controlling the system of aviation from a managerial, economic, and regulatory perspective. Examples and case studies of airports, airlines, and the production industry in each chapter support the application-oriented approach. The summary and review questions help the reader to understand the focus and main messages of each chapter. Students and researchers in business administration with a focus on aviation, as well as professionals in the industry looking to refresh or broaden their knowledge in the field will benefit from this book.
