In Disaster Management and International Space Law Diego Zannoni attempts to answer this crucial question through an analysis of the main legal issues involved, addressing both prevention and relief, with a special focus on major space applications such as remote sensing and telecommunications, and the attendant specific legal regimes. It is argued that, when lives of human beings are in danger, territorial sovereignty becomes, to a certain extent, porous and bends in front of the value of human life and the urgent need to rescue. On the other hand, specific obligations were identified to cooperate in the prevention and management of disasters, particularly in terms of data sharing.Studies in Space Law;volume15.Artificial satellites in remote sensingLaw and legislationSpace debrisLaw and legislationDisaster reliefLaw and legislationSpace lawInternational cooperationEmergency communication systemsTechnological innovationsArtificial satellites in remote sensingLaw and legislation.Space debrisLaw and legislation.Disaster reliefLaw and legislation.Space lawInternational cooperation.Emergency communication systemsTechnological innovations.341.47Zannoni Diego1622520NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910822232203321Disaster management and international space law3956421UNINA
