Abstract

For decades, the problem of governmental intervention on the markets provoked significant debates, representing even nowadays a controversial matter. A prevailing form of intervention is represented by subsidies. Although subsidies are regularly used by less-developed countries to stimulate exports, they are not forgotten by the advanced economies. From several examples of controversies generated by subsidy use, we examine in this paper “The Boeing-Airbus war”. For a decade, US and EU are accusing each other of “helping” the aircraft producers through governmental funds. We try to see who is right, what are the arguments, and if there will be a winner.
