This book examines the evolution of the Soviet space sector during ‘Perestroika,’ a period of economic and political reform in the USSR during the late 1980s. By analysing the economic, political, and social transformations that occurred in the Soviet Union, the author sheds light on the USSR’s evolving role on the international stage. The book meticulously explores the interplay between foreign and domestic policy and its impact on the Soviet space program. Key concepts include the complexity of establishing Soviet-European relationships amidst bloc confrontations, ideological disparities and differing scientific approaches, and the commercialisation of the Soviet space sector. Ideal for scholars of international relations, history, and space studies, this book contributes to debates on the role of science diplomacy in shaping international relations and geopolitics.
