To this end, it sets forth a comprehensive multidisciplinary framework to enable a dynamic comparison of space actors and of the pathways that lead them in and out of the space powers' club. Drawing upon a critical review of the existing literature, it conceptualises spacepower as a form of state power based on the complex interplay between the two defining dimensions of stateness, namely the well-studied dimension of capacity and the often neglected yet exceedingly important dimension of autonomy. The book demonstrates that only actors possessing high levels of both autonomy and capacity qualify as space powers. Different levels of either capacity or autonomy produce other types of space actors, including skilled spacefarers, self-reliant spacefarers, primed spacefarers, and emerging space actors. This innovative conceptual framework is complemented by an in-depth comparative assessment that collects and processes a large amount of hard-to-find data on the most active global space actors and aggregates multiple indicators into a compound, non-hierarchical index of space power visualised in the form of a matrix. 001471932 650_0 $$aSpace control (Military science) 001471932 650_0 $$aSpace law$$xPolitical aspects. 001471932 651_0 $$aOuter space$$xGovernment policy. 001471932 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001471932 7001_ $$aCappelli, Ottorino,$$eauthor. 001471932 7001_ $$aPraino, Rodrigo,$$eauthor. 001471932 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aAliberti, Marco$$tPower, State and Space$$dCham : Springer,c2023$$z9783031328701 001471932 830_0 $$aStudies in space policy. 001471932 852__ $$bebk 001471932 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-32871-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001471932 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1471932$$pGLOBAL_SET 001471932 980__ $$aBIB 001471932 980__ $$aEBOOK 001471932 982__ $$aEbook 001471932 983__ $$aOnline 001471932 994__ $$a92$$bISE
