The development and exploration of space are scientific and
engineering pursuits. However, politics determine which space
programmes and projects are pursued, and establish cost,
performance and schedule parameters for these ends. The goal of
this volume, The Politics of Space: A Survey, is to provide an
overview of the politics of space with regard to national space
efforts, and national and international organizations. Contents
include: * essays, written by experts in the field, which explore a
variety of issues, including National Security Space, Developed
Space Programmes, Moderate Space Powers, Commercial Space Actors,
International Organizations in Civil Space Affairs,
Non-governmental Space Organizations and Public Sector Actors. * a
comprehensive A - Z Glossary of cross-referenced entries on space
organizations, including national space agencies, governmental
organizations with a role in space, intergovernmental
organizations, space and aerospace companies, satellite
communications service companies, and non-governmental
organizations * illustrations and documentation, comprising
figures, tables and documentation on key issues of space politics.
Important figures include: models of space political processes;
issues related to national security space management, challenges
and environment; geopolitics of space; and the dynamics of
relations between the governmental and commercial space sectors.
Tables of significance highlight programmatic attributes of
national security space, comparisons in the development of space
programmes among states world-wide, and the functions and roles of
international organizations that deal with space.
