This volume deals with key issues of the space economy, defined as the full range of activities and the use of resources that create value and benefits for human beings in the course of exploring, researching, understanding, managing and utilizing space. These topics are treated from an economic perspective, with particular attention paid to the development of knowledge, as well as the set-up of technologies with high industrial impacts. The book, thus, provides a new and wider interpretation of the space economy, focusing on the (tangible) returns of the investments made in the space industry since the Space Race. It will particularly appeal to scholars, researchers and PhD students, as well as those in the space community.
This book provides an overview of key topics related to space business and management. Case studies and an integrative section are included to illustrate the fundamental concepts and to build intuition. Key topics in the field, such as risk management and cost management, are covered in detail.
This second edition of The Space Economy at a Glance paints an updated and richly detailed picture of the space industry, its downstream services activities, and its wider economic and social impacts.
What is the "American Dream"? This book's author argues that contrary to what many believe, it is not achieving the wealth necessary to enter the top one percent but rather becoming members of the great middle class by dint of hard work and self-discipline. Americans of all classes consider themselves to be "middle class." There are Americans who by any objective standard should be considered poor who would insist they are middle class, just as other Americans who should be considered wealthy also insist they are middle class. Thinking of yourself and being thought of by others as middle class is the "American Dream" for tens of millions of people. But an enduring problem of the American middle class is the worry that the "Dream" is coming apart—that forces are lurking in the shadows waiting to steal their progress and throw them back into "poverty." This thought-provoking reference explores a disparate multitude of issues associated with being middle class in America. It addresses a range of questions and subtopics, including the meaning of the term "middle class"; how middle class status is expressed by both the majority and the various minorities that make up the American mosaic; what economic pressures are bearing down on the middle class; and how economists and others attempt to make sense of the economic issues of the day. Readers will also better understand how political institutions and public policies are shaping the way the middle class views the world; how labor, housing, education, and crime-related issues have influenced the development and growth of the middle class; the norms of the middle class versus those of other classes in society; and the role of culture and media in shaping how members of the middle class view themselves—and how they are viewed by others. This two-volume set provides a comprehensive look at the American middle class that supports student research in economics, social studies, cultural studies, and political history. The content supports teachers in their development of lesson plans and assignments that directly align with the Common Core State Standards and the recommendations of the National Curriculum Standards for Social Studies (NCSS) with respect to all ten NCSS themes.
A major non-technical challenge of space activities is ensuring productive cooperation, communication, and understanding between the engineers who design the mission and the space lawyers who cover its relevant legal aspects. Though both groups usually attain some level of understanding, it is only achieved after many years of experience in the space industry and through repeated contact with topics relevant to their projects. A basic understanding of the most important legal and technical aspects acquired earlier in their careers can facilitate better cooperation and more efficient development of space projects. Promoting Productive Cooperation Between Space Lawyers and Engineers is a pivotal reference source that provides vital insights into basic legal and technical topics and challenges that occur while planning and conducting typical space activities. The book uses high-profile space missions as examples and highlights the major technical aspects of these missions and the legal issues applied to these missions. While highlighting topics such as planetary settlements, policy perspectives, and suborbital spaceflight, this publication is ideally designed for lawyers, engineers, academicians, students, and professionals.
A recent report from the Futron Corporation (2009) addresses strategic private questions about space power and competitiveness: -What are the core measure of space competition?- Is space nationalism on the rise, and if so, what are the implications?-What are the implications of multi-polar space community?-What are the economic consequences of a commercial space environment based on multiple international providers of key technologies, systems and services?Hertzfeld (2007) has described how space power can be viewed from a commercial perspective in two ways. ''The first is economic: Encouragement of USA space ventures to be dominant in the world marketplace, either through the creation of a monopoly by market dominance. The second is aggressively denying others access or interfering with the operations of foreign space assets. '' Thus, it is possible that space exploration can stimulate the economy via job creation and the possibility of products entering future potential economic aspect of two civilian application of space technologies: communications and meteorology. Another author's opinion, Taraseko (1996) has classified ''Russian space systems according to the missions performed. These systems can be sub-divided into space weapons, space surveillance and intelligence systems, support systems and scientific systems .'' He implied Russian will concentrate on manufacturing space weapons, then it will also sell space weapons to global finally. I think space exploration will have military and civil two aspects, instead of space tourism. Thus, on space system military aspect, it includes space weapons, space to Earth anti- satellite, early warning. Beside, on space system civil aspect, it includes support and applied communications, navigation, mapping, meteorological remote sensing and scientific research. It implies 'Globalization' will be cooperated by different main space leaders who will be carrying on space exploration activities in the future.
Global Perspectives on Human Rights and the Impact of Tourism Consumption in the 21st Century is an essential reference book for those concerned with the interaction between tourism consumption, social justice, and human rights.
