The law of outer space is rapidly evolving to adapt to changes in
the economic drivers as well as advancements in technological
capabilities. The contents of this book are a reflection of this
changing environment as evidenced in the writings of the second and
third generations of space lawyers. Theoretical aspects of space
law are explored by chapters relating to fundamental concepts
central to the corpus juris spatialis. Practical aspects of space
law are probed by examinations into international and domestic
regulation of commercial activities, with particular emphasis on
African, Asian, and European perspectives. International policy
considerations are scrutinized in relation to military uses of
outer space. The scientific Search for Extraterrestrial
Intelligence (SETI) is the subject of a concise history of the
discipline vis-a-vis the role of the SETI Permanent Committee of
the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA), and also of a
study of the policy and other ramifications of social media in the
event of the discovery of intelligent extraterrestrial beings. The
book concludes with the republication of the seminal and highly
influential Relations With Alien Intelligences The Scientific Basis
of Metalaw by Dr. Ernst Fasan, first published in 1970. Scholar,
author, and attorney Ernst Fasan was among the original space
lawyers, a small, pioneering group of visionaries who recognized
that the movement of man into space must be accomplished without
the shackles of history and in an environment free from the threat
of the use of space as an instrument of armed aggression. The
influence of Dr. Fasan has extended beyond the international legal
community to the broader scientific community, especially to the
field of astrobiology, as he pursued groundbreaking investigations
into what could be the ultimate in legal relationships - metalaw -
the interaction of sentient beings from different planets. The
contributors to this Liber Amicorum are among those who can trace
their own work to the foundations of space law placed in part by
Ernst Fasan.
