Taking Stock of Air Liberalization is about Technology, Economy,
and Policy (TEP) in the airline industry. Ten years ago, the
practical collaboration was begun of bringing together people who
belonged to the complementary streams of economic analysis and
policy analysis presented int his book. During this time, we opened
discussions on the relationship between transportation technology,
transportation economics and transportation policy under the
general auspices of the Canadian Royal Commission on National
Passenger Transportation. Working over a 40-month period
(1989-1992), this Commission took stock of transportation and
produced an up-to-date `Etat de la question' and policy framework
(Hyndman, et al, 1992). Clearly, the project committee's
discussions on air policy, over the period 1995-1997 (see Chapter
8), outlined the possibilities for a mechanism to understand the
differences about the desirability of air liberalisation, as well
as the possible TEP interactions in this area. This led to an
exploratory first formulation and computer programme (HLB, 1997)
incorporating the approach outlined in Chapter 15. A joint
celebration of the CRT's 25th birthday and Transport Canada's 60th
birthday seemed appropriate to bring together the various streams.
Part I of Taking Stock of Air Liberalization looks at the record,
and Part II focuses on specific impacts of policies. Policy
formulation (Part III) and the required tools (Part IV - Modelling
Demand) are also discussed in this context. The book ends with
perspectives in Part V - The Future Market Structure and Public
Policy. The competition among airlines is rapidly spreading to the
competition among airports, and the difficult regulation of these
strategic spatial monopolies (which is introduced in Chapter 13) is
now attracting research activity. The next discussion in the
airline industry will be the role of airports.
