This handbook is a reference work providing a comprehensive,
objective and comparative overview of Space Law. The global space
economy reached $330 billion in 2015, with a growth rate of 9 per
cent vis-a-vis the previous year. Consequently, Space Law is
changing and expanding expeditiously, especially at the national
level. More laws and regulations are being adopted by space-faring
nations, while more countries are adapting their Space Laws and
regulations related to activities in outer space. More regulatory
bodies are being created, while more regulatory diversity (from
public law to private law) is being instituted as increasing and
innovative activities are undertaken by private entities which
employ new technologies and business initiatives. At the
international level, Space Law (both hard law and soft law) is
expanding in certain areas, especially in satellite broadcasting
and telecommunications. The Routledge Handbook of Space Law
summarises the existing state of knowledge on a comprehensive range
of topics and aspires to set the future international research
agenda by indicating gaps and inconsistencies in the existing law
and highlighting emerging legal issues. Unlike other books on the
subject, it addresses major international and national legal
aspects of particular space activities and issues, rather than
providing commentary on or explanations about a particular Space
Law treaty or national regulation. Drawing together contributions
from leading academic scholars and practicing lawyers from around
the world, the volume is divided into five key parts: * Part I:
General Principles of International Space Law * Part II:
International Law of Space Applications * Part III: National
Regulation of Space Activities * Part IV: National Regulation of
Navigational Satellite Systems * Part V: Commercial Aspects of
Space Law This handbook is both practical and theoretical in scope,
and may serve as a reference tool to academics, professionals and
policy-makers with an interest in Space Law.
