Download or read book Jim Crow Terminals written by Anke Ortlepp and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2017-07-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical accounts of racial discrimination in transportation have focused until now on trains, buses, and streetcars and their respective depots, terminals, stops, and other public accommodations. It is essential to add airplanes and airports to this narrative, says Anke Ortlepp. Air travel stands at the center of the twentieth century’s transportation revolution, and airports embodied the rapidly mobilizing, increasingly prosperous, and cosmopolitan character of the postwar United States. When segregationists inscribed local definitions of whiteness and blackness onto sites of interstate and even international transit, they not only brought the incongruities of racial separation into sharp relief but also obligated the federal government to intervene. Ortlepp looks at African American passengers; civil rights organizations; the federal government and judiciary; and airport planners, architects, and managers as actors in shaping aviation’s legal, cultural, and built environments. She relates the struggles of black travelers—to enjoy the same freedoms on the airport grounds that they enjoyed in the aircraft cabin—in the context of larger shifts in the postwar social, economic, and political order. Jim Crow terminals, Ortlepp shows us, were both spatial expressions of sweeping change and sites of confrontation over the renegotiation of racial identities. Hence, this new study situates itself in the scholarly debate over the multifaceted entanglements of “race” and “space.”
Download or read book Airline Passenger Security Screening written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-07-19 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses new technologies being considered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for screening airport passengers for concealed weapons and explosives. The FAA is supporting the development of promising new technologies that can reveal the presence not only of metal-based weapons as with current screening technologies, but also detect plastic explosives and other non-metallic threat materials and objects, and is concerned that these new technologies may not be appropriate for use in airports for other than technical reasons. This book presents discussion of the health, legal, and public acceptance issues that are likely to be raised regarding implementation of improvements in the current electromagnetic screening technologies, implementation of screening systems that detect traces of explosive materials on passengers, and implementation of systems that generate images of passengers beneath their clothes for analysis by human screeners.

Download or read book Airport Regulation Law and Public Policy written by Robert M. Hardaway and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1991-07-19 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic rise in air traffic, together with rapid residential and commercial development around our metropolitan areas, has strained the capacity of airports to serve the public safely and efficiently. Hardaway's book explores this problem in depth. Drawing on both the hands-on expertise of professionals in the field and a thorough grounding in law and public policy, it looks at the laws governing airport development and addresses the complex regulatory and policy issues surrounding the construction, expansion, and operation of airports. Beginning with a review of airport regulation from 1903 onward, Hardaway examines aspects of regulatory power, including federal and local authority, local proprietorship, and citizens' concerns. Chapters on airport planning, financing, and operation have been contributed by experts with practical experience in these fields. The question of civil rights in employment and marketplace competition is also considered. Other topics addressed are local, state, and federal regulation of noise; responses to the terrorist threat; the airport as a public forum for free speech and the exercise of religion; the economics of regulation; and the impact of anti-trust legislation. Offering constructive proposals for policy development as well as detailed analysis of current problems, this book will be appropriate reading for students, educators, and professionals concerned with air transportation development, management, policy, and law.

Download or read book Sovereign Immunity for Public Airport Operators written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the common law concept that, as ruler of the country, the sovereign (government) cannot be sued unless it consents. The Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution codified this protection for states, protecting them from being sued in federal courts. While the basic principle remains today, it has been the subject of legislative enactments at the federal and state levels that circumscribe, limit, or otherwise waive sovereign immunity. Since local governmental entities are not recognized as sovereigns in their own right, they derive their sovereign immunity from state legislation and exercise only those sovereign powers delegated to them by the states. Most public airports are owned and operated by units of local government or regional governmental authorities. Therefore, the extent of sovereign immunity granted to airports varies from state to state. This digest provides an overview of sovereign immunity as it applies to airports and provides a state-by-state summary of each state's statutory authority and relevant case law. Appendix A provides a table of cases, and Appendix B contains a chart of authorities.
Download or read book Regulations Affecting the Exercise of First Amendment Activities at Airports written by Jodi L. Howick and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Airports have been and continue to be the focus of considerable civic, religious, labor, and fundraising activities and a venue for commercial advertising. These activities intersect with the safe and secure daily operation of airports. Airport operators regulate First Amendment conduct in a variety of different ways (e.g., local regulation, ordinance, and statute). While there has been a great deal written on case law concerning the extent to which these activities are protected by the First Amendment, there has not been any focus on how airports are regulating First Amendment activities in an increasingly congested and security-conscious environment. This digest provides an overview of the First Amendment for airport operators by discussing the different activities that occur at airports, the issues that generally affect them, and the legal challenges to airport policies, while laying out the history of case law in this arena. The appendix provides a survey of responses in a number of different states. This digest will be useful to airport directors and attorneys who want to under- stand how to best regulate First Amendment activities at their airport.
