This book is both a repertory guide to the Convention on
International Civil Aviation (Chicago Convention) as well as a
legal analysis of the provisions of the treaty. It traces action
taken by the ICAO Assembly and the Council in the implementation of
the Convention from the first ICAO Assembly in 1947 until 2012.
Above all, the book offers a commentary on the functional and moral
fabric of the Chicago Convention, which is not only a multilateral
legal instrument that sets out basic principles of air navigation
and air transport, but also serves as a moral compass that brings
the people of the world together. The teleological nature of the
Chicago Convention is reflected from the outset - from its Preamble
which sets the tone and philosophy of the Convention - that
aviation builds friendship and understanding among all people, to
its technical provisions that range from rules of the air to
landing at airports and customs and immigration procedures. The
book effectively demonstrates the Aristotelian principle - that
rules make people good by forming habits in them. Standardization,
or in other words, compliance, is the driver of the Convention that
keeps aviation safe, regular, efficient and economical. To that
end, this book traces and details the sustained relevance of the
Chicago Convention and the efforts of ICAO and the international
aviation community towards keeping air transport on track and ready
for its future exponential growth, both in letter and in spirit.
