Breaking new ground in criminology, this book reflects on the expansion of outer space endeavours, the new pathways this presents for crime, challenges to Earth-based conceptions of justice, and the ethical issues raised.

This book is the first edited collection of chapters focused on how to prepare for, address and respond to, instances of criminal and harmful behaviour in (and related to) outer space. It also considers what criminal justice might look like in outer space, and how the important arena of ethics might help play a pivotal role in helping overcome problems related to crime and crime control. The book comprises twenty-six chapters from authors spanning six continents, giving a truly international dimension to the first anthology relating to the intersection of space criminology, space criminal justice and space ethics. It is this international dimension that is essential to the development of a holistic understanding of crime, criminal justice and ethics in outer space.

Exploring recent topics, including the dark origin of space exploration, expansion of satellite industries, space tourism, asteroid mining, and human-settlement on the Moon and Mars, the book will appeal to space professionals, and students and researchers working in criminology, critical security studies, law, and ethics.

Yarin Eski is an Associate Professor in Public Administration, doing research on and at the intersection of criminology, governance and policing. He is co-director of the Resilience, Security and Civil Unrest (ReSCU) R&I Lab at the Vrije Universiteit (VU) Amsterdam. His research focuses on maritime crime and policing, as well as arms dealing, genocide and space crime (control). Jack Lampkin is a Lecturer in Criminology at York St John University, UK. He is a green criminologist and completed his PhD in 2018 at the University of Lincoln’s Law School (UK) where he studied the environmental and social impacts of unconventional hydraulic fracturing for shale gas production purposes. Jack is interested in all things relating to human interactions with outer space and the impact this has on both terrestrial and extra-terrestrial environs.
