The Convention Relating to the Regulation of Aerial Navigation signed in Paris, 13 October 1919 (henceforth also referred to as the 1919 Paris Convention) and the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation signed in Chicago, 7 December 1944 (henceforth also referred to as the 1944 Chicago Convention) both define and give emphasis to the fundamental principle of airspace sovereignty. From a historical point of view, the origin of the principle of airspace sovereignty is military: given the proliferation of military aircraft throughout the two World Wars in the 20th century, the principle was set out as a result of the employment of destructive weapons released through air during incursions into foreign national airspaces.

Abstract
The Convention Relating to the Regulation of Aerial Navigation signed in Paris, 13 October 1919 (henceforth also referred to as the 1919 Paris Convention) and the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation signed in Chicago, 7 December 1944 (henceforth also referred to as the 1944 Chicago Convention) both define and give emphasis to the fundamental principle of airspace sovereignty. From a historical point of view, the origin of the principle of airspace sovereignty is military: given the proliferation of military aircraft throughout the two World Wars in the 20th century, the principle was set out as a result of the employment of destructive weapons released through air during incursions into foreign national airspaces.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
