THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE ECONOMIC ASPECTS ON THE SECURITY OF AIR TRANSPORT SERVICES

Summary/Abstract: The theoretical debates in the security area have undergone an extensive evolution, especially in the last 20 years. Eloquent aspects of this research were found in typical works elaborated by research specialists such as Taurek, Floyd Balzacq, and Stritzel. Based on the exploratory analysis that targeted the specialized literature in the field, but also through some case studies, the implications of the problems from the economic sphere on the security aspects involved in the air transport services were demonstrated. The costs generated by the security services at the airport, to facilitate the transfer of passengers, have seen a substantial increase in the last years, even if the investments were substantial. Through this article, we aim to devise a picture of the whole problem in the field of economic complicated, predominantly related to cost, price, and performance funding aviation security. The research area includes cost-benefit analysis, the relationships between production input prices, information flows, human factors that are involved in measuring performance, and the role of technology and risk-based security.
