Description
The Cologne Commentary on Space Law is a three-volume annotation on the written norms of space law as enunciated through the Treaties of the United Nations and its General Assembly Resolutions.
Volume I focuses on the 1967 'Outer Space Treaty'. A broad international authorship of twenty experts addresses the historical overview and provides a provision-by-provision interpretation of the Outer Space Treaty. This Volume also includes insights into the subsequent State practice, present-day applicability and future perspectives of the Treaty.
Volume I serves as a foundation upon which Volumes II and III of the Commentary build. The other four UN Treaties will be addressed in Volume II, forthcoming in 2010. Volume III, in 2011, will then delve into the six most relevant United Nations General Assembly Resolutions on space activities
