DESCRIPTION:Almost sixty years of exploration and use of outer space have b
 rought unprecedented benefits to mankind. Humanity now depends heavily upo
 n space\, and even a single “day without satellites” would have disastrous
  impacts for everyone on Earth\, particularly those who increasingly rely 
 on space assets.\n\nSpace technologies\, activities and issues involve Sta
 tes\, commercial space enterprises\, non-state actors and possibly even te
 rrorist organizations. As space infrastructure grows more vital to global 
 economic\, business and strategic systems\, the potential of space conflic
 t therefore appears to increase. Possible armed conflict in space might ha
 ve devastating implications for the space systems of all nations and perha
 ps even for life on Earth.\n\nThis 4th Annual Manfred Lachs Conference wil
 l address issues related to the state of the art in current and future mil
 itary and security technologies and activities\, the development of milita
 ry policies and doctrines\, the challenges and risks they represent in ter
 ms of space security\, the national exploitation of space natural resource
 s\, space sustainability\, and the peaceful uses of outer space for the be
 nefit of all. In addition\, presentation will address the adequacy and ina
 dequacy of the current rules of international space law\, public internati
 onal law\, and international humanitarian law\, with respect to conflict a
 voidance in outer space.\n\nVisit our website www.mcgill.ca/iasl/ for up-t
 o-date information about the conference (including program updates and oth
 er relevant information).\n\nONLINE REGISTRATION NOW OPEN: bookstore.mcgil
