As outer space becomes more congested, contested, and competitive, the risks to space safety, security, and sustainability heighten. Against this backdrop, the authors used a review of relevant literature and official documents, as well as interviews and workshops with subject-matter experts, to identify possible lessons for future space traffic management (STM) from past approaches to international traffic management and common resource management and offer recommendations to make progress in STM. Lessons from the history of the maritime and air domains and the development and implementation of international organizations within those domains help provide a pathway for the development of an international space traffic management organization (ISTMO). An ISTMO will need to achieve sufficient legitimacy and operational power to effectively manage the space domain.

The constitution of WHO (1946) mentions "the highest attainable standard of healthas a fundamental right of every human being." Moreover, taking health as individualrights or basic fundamental right makes it mandatory for a state to provide for thisfundamental necessity of having a decent and dignified life.

Das Vertriebsrecht ist in der chinesischen Rechtswissenschaft lange vernachlässigt worden. In dieser Arbeit wird versucht, das systematische und dogmatische chinesische Vertriebsrecht zu skizzieren, insbesondere das Vertriebsvertrags- und Vertriebskartellrecht. Als Ausgangspunkt wird eine rechtsvergleichende Untersuchung zu drei klassischen Arten von Vertriebsverträgen durchgeführt ¿ nämlich zum Handelsvertretervertrag, zum Kommissionär- und Kommissionsagentenvertrag und zum Handelsmaklervertrag. Anschließend werden Verbesserungsvorschläge für drei Arten von Vertriebsverträgen ¿ basierend auf deutschem Recht ¿ gegeben. Schließlich werden Perspektiven für ein künftiges modernes Absatzmittlungsrecht in China entwickelt.

This book questions the use of salvage law as legal regulatory framework for the remuneration of environmental services in salvage operations, proposing that such services should be based on direct contracting between commercial salvors and coastal States. Adopting an environment-first approach, it argues that direct contracting better serves and promotes environmental protection outcomes. It also takes a functional view of the law as a tool to promote values and sought outcomes. Salvage operations are recognised as the first line of defence against pollution following shipping incidents. Although regulated under the law of salvage, these operations form an integral component of a framework of environmental protection measures regulated under different legal instruments or laws. The law of salvage fails to effectively integrate salvage operations into broader pollution response mechanisms because it does not align comfortably with this framework of laws. Despite the emphasis on environmental protection in the 1989 London Salvage Convention, the Convention maintains the traditional notion of salvage operations as a service to property, while environmental outcomes and the remuneration of environmental services are positioned as a secondary outcome of the law of salvage. This book argues that directly contracting for environmental services bolsters the primacy of environmental protection and the functional use of law to further environmental protection and policy formulation. Direct contracting between coastal States and salvors for environmental services complements existing practices and pollution response mechanisms and provides a sound legal basis for the effective realisation of salvage operations as the first line of defence against pollution following shipping incidents without fundamentally altering the established commercial identity of the traditional law of salvage. This book will be key reading for students, academics, and practitioners working at the intersection of shipping and environmental law.
