This book examines transatlantic politics through an analysis of 60
years of US-European strategic interaction in space. The
significance of space politics for the study of transatlantic
relations receives surprisingly little scholarly attention. As a
theatre of interaction, transatlantic space politics reflects the
vicissitudes of European and US power in the international system.
An understanding of space politics is therefore vital in
understanding the status and prospect of the transatlantic order.
Using established IR theories, the author investigates
transatlantic space politics and proposes a theoretical
explanation, which is distinct from the conventional wisdom of the
transatlantic security community. More specifically, he
distinguishes between the constitutive and regulatory effects of
the transatlantic security community, an approach rarely employed
in other research in the field. Overall, this book suggests not
only that the transatlantic institutional pillar requires repair,
but also that the ideational factors need to be revitalised in
order to consolidate the transatlantic alliance. This book will be
of much interest to students of space power, transatlantic
politics, strategic studies, foreign policy and IR/security studies
in general.
