Geopolitics of the Outer Space: A European Perspective

This volume presents a comprehensive geopolitical analysis of European space activities. By studying outer space as a physical and socio-economic space as well as a military-diplomatic area, the author helps readers understand outer space as a geopolitical environment. It also offers insights into the behaviour and strategies of different actors, with a special focus on the European space strategy and the nature of the European space programme and diplomacy.
