Mapping the World - Space: A New Stake Of Power?

Synopsis

For states, their position in the "Space Race " in the 21st century is still a great indicator of power. But the stakes are not the same as during the Cold War. The "Star Wars " project launched by Ronald Reagan in the 1980s was all about military power.

In other words, it was all about "Hard Power ". Nowadays going into space is also a chance to enter a new war: the one for information and telecommunications, the one for prestige, or "Soft Power "; human dreams of adventure and exploration notwithstanding. After the Moon, who will be the first to set foot on Mars?

 

The Serie : Then complex world of geopolitics broken down into ten minute, bite-sized chunks. You'll never sound uninformed at the dinner table ever again.
