Safety Management Systems and their Origins: Insights from the Aviation Industry presents different perspectives on SMS to better decode what it means as a safety approach and what it implicitly conveys beyond safety.

The book uses the aviation industry as a basis for analyzing where the SMS stands in terms of safety enhancement. Through a socio-historical analysis of how SMSs emerged and spread across high-risk industries and countries, the book also explains the other stakes underpinning this new approach to safety management.

Presents a socio-historical analysis of how SMSs emerged in high-risk industries.
Provides insights to explain the existing limitations of SMS.
Proposes new avenues to reach beyond the limitations of SMS.
