This thesis explores a viable domestic legal framework for Japanese private space activities. Ideally, Japanese space legislation would govern private entities in a way that promotes commercialization while also fulfilling international obligations, doing both with an especial focus on commercial launch activities. First, I analyze current Japanese space law and space policies and continue by identifying Japan's problems in this arena. Next, I present research regarding other countries' space legislation solutions and examine how other nations' regulations do or do not solve problems similar to Japan's. Then, I assess the applicability of the foreign countries' approaches to Japan's situation. Finally, I propose ideas for a new legal structure for space activities in Japan and discuss possible implementation. I do so within the context of existing space policy problems that Japan must first tackle in order to successfully develop and enforce such new laws in the future. |
