First Published in 1965 Politics and the Airlines looks into the
making of airline policy in five countries, Australia, Britain,
Canada, India, and the United States. It shows the part played by
political parties, ministers, government departments, regulatory
bodies, and the boards of management of airlines themselves. In
four of the countries the major airlines are publicly owned and
have been involved in the cut and thrust of political controversy
between enthusiasts for public enterprise and their opponents. In
those countries where publicly owned and privately owned airlines
compete, the politics of the airlines industry are particularly
interesting. Dr Corbett’s study of these mixed, regulated
airlines industries deal with the subject in a new way and presents
a general analysis. His analysis could equally well be applied to
other industries which are at present constructed along the same
lines. The discussion is presented against a background of the
history of a fascinating industry and Dr Corbett maintains that the
advantage of this form of industry lies in its political efficiency
as much as in its attractions to consumers and employees. This is a
must read for those interested in the history of aviation industry,
public policy, and public administration.
