ICAO is the largest and most important organization involved with aviation safety, and its technical standards, legal regulations, and operating procedures have been essential in the development of international commercial aviation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn the first history of this important UN body, David MacKenzie touches on issues ranging from the Cold War to economic regulation and development assistance. With the rise of aviation terrorism, MacKenzie demonstrates that ICAO has assumed a leading role in the struggle to secure civil aviation against sabotage and hijacking, while providing a forum for international concerns and disputes. A broad political-diplomatic history of the organization and the role that it played in the evolution of international civil aviation, this work offers a unique perspective on modern transportation and international cooperation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart One\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Puritan and the Past\u003cbr\u003e Chicago: The Ambitious Dream\u003cbr\u003e PICAO: 'An International Conference Always at Work\u003cbr\u003e The First Assembly\u003cbr\u003e Remembering the Forgotten Man': ICAO's Quest for Multilateralism\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePart Two\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Headquarter Headaches\u003cbr\u003e Growing Pains\u003cbr\u003e Maintaining Standards\u003cbr\u003e Problem Solving in ICAO: The Unfinished Symphony\u003cbr\u003e The Cold War Comes to ICAO\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePart Three\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Closer to the Heart than the Purse': ICAO and the Problem of Security\u003cbr\u003e Evolution not Revolution: ICAO in a Changing World\u003cbr\u003e The Cold War Comes to ICAO - Again\u003cbr\u003e The Politics of Aviation Security\u003cbr\u003e Back to the Future: The Return of Multilateralism\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePart Four\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From Development to Implementation: ICAO in the Modern World\u003cbr\u003e Meeting the 21st Century\u003cbr\u003e Appendix 1: The Convention on International Civil Aviation\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52734616731928,"sku":"9781442640108","price":50.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/icao-a-history-of-the-international-civil-aviation-organization-hardback-9781442640108","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
