This book examines the international politics of the space age from 1957 to the present, the reasons why strategic restraint emerged among the major military powers, and how recent trends toward weaponization may challenge prior norms of conflict avoidance. James Clay Moltz analyzes the competing demands of national interests in space against the shared interests of all spacefarers in preserving the safe use of space in the face of emerging threats, such as man-made orbital debris. This new edition offers analysis of the 2011 to 2018 period, including the second term of President Obama and the beginning of the Trump administration. [This book] is an authoritative history of the space age focusing on great power competition and cooperation, as well as questions related to the sustainability of current and future national space policies. -- Back cover. 505 0 $a The dynamics of space security : existing explanations -- Space and environmental security -- Roots of the U.S.-Soviet space race : 1920s-1962 -- The emergence of cooperative restraint : 1962-1975 -- Challenges to space security and their resolution : 1976-1991 -- Post-cold war space uncertainty : 1992-2000 -- Renewed U.S. space nationalism : 2001-2008 -- Expanding international norms amid tensions : 2009-present -- Alternative futures for space security. 650 0 $a Space security $x History. 650 0 $a Astronautics and state $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Astronautics and state $z Soviet Union $x History. 650 0 $a Space warfare $x Prevention. 650 0 $a Space race $x History. 651 0 $a Outer space $x History. $x Political aspects $x History. 651 0 $a Outer space $x Security measures. $x Security measures. 650 7 $a Astronautics and state. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00819576 650 7 $a Space race. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01127802 650 7 $a Space security. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01747067 651 7 $a Outer space. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01243437 651 7 $a Soviet Union. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210281 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526015432.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=24829DD078F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
