The development and exploration of space are technical engineering
and scientific 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 is to provide an overview of the politics of space with
regard to national space efforts, and the role played by national
and international organizations. The Politics of Space: A Survey
includes essays written by experts in the field, which explore a
variety of issues, including the Politics of Space, 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. Following the essays a comprehensive glossary of
cross-referenced entries focuses 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 are also included. Important figures include: models of
space political processes; issues related to national security
space management, challenges and environment; geopolitics of space;
the dynamics of relations between the government and commercial
space sectors. Tables of significance highlight programmatic
attributes of national security space, comparisons in the
development of space programmes among states worldwide, and the
functions and roles of international organizations that deal with
space. Documentation covers texts of space policy and law related
to the regime of international space law, European space programmes
and a number of other organizations.
