It disentangles India´s evolving rationales for engaging in space from a wide range of perspectives and provides novel and in-depth assessment of the domestic, regional and international factors influencing the pace and directions of the country?s space programme. The study hence includes an extensive analysis of India?s path forward, including a reflection on the long-term evolution of its civil, military and commercial space efforts, as well as considerations on the toolbox India has at its disposal, on the prospected adaptation of the space ecosystem, and on the implications these evolutions may generate both domestically and internationally. A central part of this final analysis is more specifically devoted to elaborating on the prospects and opportunities for European stakeholders, with the goal of identifying possible domains of closer and mutually beneficial Europe-India space cooperation and sorting out possible elements for a comprehensive European long-term strategy towards India. 410 0$aStudies in Space Policy,$x1868-5307 ;$v14 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aR & D/Technology Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W43000 606 $aPolitical Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911000 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 14$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aR & D/Technology Policy. 615 24$aPolitical Science. 676 $a629.1 700 $aAliberti$b Marco$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0720056 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300860103321 996 $aIndia in Space: Between Utility and Geopolitics$92217856 997 $aUNINA
