Ownership of Satellites: 4th Luxembourg Workshop on Space and Satellite Communication Law

Univ.-Prof. Dr. Mahulena Hofmann; Dr. Andreas Loukakis

doi:10.5771/9783845281476

Summary

Das von internationalen Autoren aus Wissenschaft und Praxis des Raumfahrtrechts verfasste Werk beschäftigt sich im Kern mit Problemen des Eigentumrechts an Satelliten, deren Übertragung und der Haftung bei Schäden.

Darüber hinaus werden unter anderem die Registrierung von Raumobjekten unter UN-Rahmenbedingungen und die Zuweisung von Frequenzen behandelt.

Die Publikation ist ein bedeutender Beitrag zur theoretischen Debatte über das Recht des Weltraums, ist aber zugleich ein wichtiges Instrument für die Anwaltschaft im Finanz- und Versicherungssektor.
