International Space Law [Paperback]

The exploration of space and the development of space technology constitute an entirely new and highly specific sphere of human activity, which affects the interest of all nations.

Its rapid progress in the past few decades has raised a number of juridical problems and given rise to a new branch of international law: international space law.

With an eye to these diversified activities, the writers of this book have given special attention ot the most important principles and norms of international space law, and to analysing the bilateral and mutlilateral agreements on individual aspects of space activities. Many specific examples are given concerning the solution of the international space problems that arise in everyday practical activities.
