International Cooperation in the Aerospace Industry (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

International Cooperation in the Aerospace Industry offers a unique study and analysis of how nations and industries have cooperated internationally to design and manufacture civil and military aircraft from a variety of perspectives: historical, economic, organizational, operational and political.

Covering Europe, North and South America, Asia and the Middle East, the author examines both the practical and managerial aspects of establishing and operating international programs and analyses the economic and political dynamics associated with international cooperation. A chapter is dedicated to description and comparison of the various organizational and legal structures that have historically been used as frameworks for cooperative programs. It also examines cooperative international activities in aerospace research and development, and international ventures in maintenance, repair and overhaul of operational aircraft.

Throughout the book, practical examples of cooperative programs around the world are used to illustrate analytical themes, as well as a series of case studies of international cooperative aircraft programs of special political and economic significance. This comprehensive book will be a valuable resource for researchers and post graduate students specialising in aviation and aerospace management.
