Different Frontier, Same Legal Script? On the Course of Replicating Earth's Patterns in Space

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
As states and private actors expand their activities in outer space, the international legal framework governing this domain risks extending longstanding structures of global inequality beyond Earth. This article examines how international space law, shaped by a broader disciplinary pattern of reactive legal development, is poised to reproduce ...

Privileged Precarity: How the Mobile Middle Class Leverage Housing Insecurity as Labour Market Strategy

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does the ability to weather insecurity give some an upper‐hand over others? This paper examines the interrelationship between housing and labour market precarity among middle class young professionals. Drawing on interviews with residents of co‐living schemes—for‐profit shared housing where tenants are on temporary rental contracts—it ...

Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.
