Abstract:This bachelor thesis examines the purposeful discontinuation of the Airbus A380 product line by conducting an exploratory case study analysis based on the multi-level perspective (MLP) approach by Geels and Schot (2007). Key governance actors involved in the discontinuation process as well as different phases of discontinuation are identified and studied. Also, the research touches upon the circumstances that led to the decision to stop the A380 product line as well as it sheds light on the consequences arising from the discontinuation. The bachelor thesis concludes with a new-developed pathway model that exemplifies the gradual fade-out of a socio-technical system.
