This book, first published in 1982, analyses the prospects of the Cold War superpowers arms race spilling into outer space. A SIPRI-organized symposium in 1981 discussed the consequences of the militarization of outer space, as well as further arms control and disarmament measures.

We are living in an era not only dominated but often driven by new and emerging technologies. Space technology is a classic example of an emerging capability that has a multitude of applications. This volume offers an informed basis to continue the debate on the opportunities and challenges relating to the commercialisation of space.
