Global Issues Surrounding Outer Space Law and Policy by Kim Doo examines the institutional challenges and legal frameworks governing outer space activities. The volume addresses how international legal mechanisms must adapt to growing competition over the exploitation and mining of resources on celestial bodies like the Moon and asteroids.
The volume evaluates the five core United Nations space treaties: the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, the 1968 Rescue Agreement, the 1972 Liability Convention, the 1975 Registration Convention, and the 1979 Moon Agreement. It also reviews regional legislative approaches and explores legal questions surrounding space debris.
This work serves lawyers, professors, government officials, space agency representatives, researchers, and students seeking methods to address modern issues in international space law and policy.
