This book discusses the need for national space legislation in
India in the wake of private stakeholders entering the field and
the expansion of outer space activities. Highlighting India's
commitment to responsibly pursuing its outer space ambitions
through rule of law, the book discusses the rationale behind
national space legislation and addresses the requirements of both
international and domestic law. In order to suggest draft framework
national space legislation for India, it examines and compares the
legislations of twenty major space-faring countries to identify the
best practices. One of the few scientific studies in India that
proposes draft framework legislation for space activities in India,
this book summarizes the three main reasons why national space
legislation is necessary - to fulfill international obligations, to
address India's specific requirements and to enable
non-governmental entities to participate. A must read for anyone
interested in international space law and India's role and
responsibility toward it, it is a valuable resource for academics,
scientists, policymakers, industry executives, lawyers and students
as well as amateur space enthusiasts.
This book offers a compendium of diverse essays on emerging legal
issues in outer space, written by experts in the field of Space Law
from different parts of the globe. The book comprehensively
addresses opportunities in space and the inevitable legal
challenges that these space activities pose for mankind. It
explores the increasing role of private sector in outer space,
which calls for a review of policy and legislation; invites opinio
juris from law scholars for ensuring the applicability of the Outer
Space Treaty on all states without ratification and universal
abidance with Space Law without demur; reflects upon the challenges
for the global space community involved in implementing a more
effective approach to international space governance; and considers
the use of domestic laws, and the consequent need for legal reform,
to encourage broader engagement with commercial space innovation.
Further, the book delves into the adequacy of existing
international liability regime to protect space tourists in the
event of a space vehicle accidents; examines the increasing use of
space for military activities and canvasses how International Law
may apply to condition behaviour; highlights the challenges of
scavenging space debris; calls for protections of space assets;
touches upon the legal regime pertaining to ASAT and discusses
other ways of creating normative instruments, which also come from
other areas and use other methods. Given its comprehensive coverage
of opportunities in space and the inevitable legal challenges that
they pose, the book offers a valuable resource for students,
researchers, academics and professionals including government
officials, industry executives, specialists, and lawyers, helping
them understand essential contemporary issues and developments in
Space Law.
