Rezensionen

'The militarization of space still needs to be better understood in its political, economic, and legal dimensions. This book provides new essential and innovative responses.'

Prof. Kai-Uwe Schrogl, President, International Institute of Space Law (IISL)





'In the shadow of great power competition in space, pan-European perspectives provide a middle-of-the-road alternative. In this deeply provocative and thoughtful text, the authors confront the need for a unified European space defence policy in an increasingly defined space warfighting domain while preserving as much of the peaceful, shared responsibility of a space-dependent world as is plausible.'

Dr. Everett Dolman, US Air Force's Air War College (AWC) and the US Space Force's West Space Seminar (WSS)
