Theorizing European Space Policy is the latest contribution to the growing debate on space policy and its role in the European integration process. This book approaches space policy from the discipline of European studies and analyzes European integration through the lenses of political science, history, economics, and international relations.

---

In the modern world, technical issues define space policy. Missing from discussions of space policy, however, is a consideration of the political consequences of new space endeavors, particularly in the context of the European Union. This book, therefore, approaches space policy instead from the discipline of European studies and analyzes the European integration process through the lenses of political science, history, economics, and international relations. The strengths of each discipline are used to apply theoretical approaches to current issues in European space policy. Theorizing European Space Policy is the latest contribution to the growing debate on space policy and its role in the European integration process.
