The subject of regulation is one of the most vital and troublesome
in our system of government. In this detailed study of early and
mid-twentieth-century regulation of commercial aviation Emmette S.
Redford illustrates what happens when government regulates a
particular industry. He first sets forth the perspectives for a
study of an area of regulation and develops an argument for
eclectic perspectives in the study of selected systems, or
universes, of social action, such as the performance of an economic
function under government regulation. These perspectives are
illustrated in the following series of case studies on regulation
of commercial aviation:1. The significance of belief patterns on
the content of the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938.2. The role of
Congress in the regulation of commercial aviation in a two-year
period.3. The interactions of Congress, the president, and the
regulated industry in strengthening safety regulation through
passage of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958.4. The actions of the
Civil Aeronautics Board on a set of complicated economic issues in
the General Passenger Fare Investigation.5. The position of the Air
Transport Association in the regulatory pattern. In "An Essay on
Evaluation" Redford summarizes what is revealed in the case studies
that is significant with respect to the system of government
regulation. He searches for standards for evaluating a system of
social control, or for evaluating parts of it, and relates his
conclusions to issues regarding the beneficence of a system of
regulated private supply of a service. The Regulatory Process is a
study of interest to the aviation industry, to students of
regulation of the economy, and to those who seek an understanding
of social systems.
