This review examines three recent books on the European Green Deal (EGD), analyzing the political and economic challenges of the EU's ambitious climate neutrality goals. The books offer comparative analysis of EU and US climate governance through punctuated equilibrium theory, explore barriers to sustainability across multiple policy domains, and investigate the legal dimensions of ecological sustainability. Though providing valuable empirical contributions, they inadequately address fundamental political economy questions regarding state-market relations and the green transition. The review argues for a more comprehensive theoretical framework that examines how climate policies interact with evolving policy paradigms, the emergence of winners and losers, and the role of various actors in shaping interventionist approaches. Understanding the EGD requires analyzing it through political economy lenses that connect domestic policy shifts with broader geopolitical trends.

ABSTRACT Cyberspace has brought significant technological innovations and benefits, but also new legal and political challenges. It created a ‘new geography’, where traditional physical borders co-exist with virtual space, posing novel security threats that complement conventional understandings of security. The resulting ‘cyberspace geopolitics’ comprises multiple actors that are increasingly in competition and conflict with each other. This article explores the implications of these developments for the European Union (EU) and its changing approach to the governance of this human-made Global Space. It argues that the approach that the EU has taken in recent years positions it in the direction of a more traditional geopolitical player. This means that the EU faces the challenge of upholding the promotion of norms, in line with its normative identity, while developing coercive mechanisms able to deal with geopolitical threats.
ABSTRACT Cyberspace has brought significant technological innovations and benefits, but also new legal and political challenges.它创造了一种 "新地理"，传统的物理边界与虚拟空间共存，构成了新的安全威胁，补充了对安全的传统理解。由此产生的 "网络空间地缘政治 "由多个行为体组成，它们之间的竞争和冲突日益加剧。本文探讨了这些发展对欧洲联盟（欧盟）的影响，以及欧盟不断变化的治理这一人造全球空间的方法。文章认为，欧盟近年来采取的方法将其定位为更传统的地缘政治参与者。这意味着欧盟面临的挑战是，既要根据其规范性身份坚持促进规范，又要发展能够应对地缘政治威胁的强制机制。

ABSTRACT Most of the areas which are beyond national jurisdiction have increasingly become contested, not least because of their growing importance and the recent ‘return’ of geopolitics. Their boundaries are blurred, and their governance has not been settled. The European Union (EU) is developing strategies to contribute to the governance of these areas: the high seas, the polar regions, the atmosphere, outer space, and cyberspace. Its roles remain, however, under-researched. This article sets the scene for a special issue that contributes to closing that gap. First, it problematizes existing concepts such as Global Commons and instead advocates the broader and more neutral analytical concept of Global Spaces. Second, it formulates guiding questions that the individual contributions subsequently address with different theoretical approaches. Third, it offers an overview of the relevant major international treaties and EU strategic policies that identifies the EU as a latecomer to the governance of Global Spaces.

ABSTRACT Outer space offers great potential, in terms of technological developments, access to natural resources and possibilities of exploration of and beyond the Moon. However, the exponential growth in the number of satellites, actors and types of space activities creates challenges for the continued Safety, Sustainability and Security (S3) of space activities. These challenges can be summarized as Congestion, Competition and Contestation in space, with all these trends converging (C4). This article explores how the European Union (EU) has over the past two decades been developing a space policy and how it can contribute to an effective, equitable and sustainable global governance of outer space. It argues that the EU is building a solid backbone to become a relevant power in global space governance across its different policies, but also that there is more potential to be realized, especially concerning the shaping future space law and governance.
ABSTRACT Outer space offers great potential, in terms of technological developments, access to natural resources and possibilities of exploration of the Moon and beyond the Moon.然而，卫星数量、参与者和空间活动类型的指数级增长，给空间活动的持续安全、可持续性和保障（S3）带来了挑战。这些挑战可以概括为太空中的拥堵、竞争和争夺，所有这些趋势都趋于一致（C4）。本文探讨了欧洲联盟（欧盟）在过去二十年中如何制定空间政策，以及如何为有效、公平和可持续的全球外层空间治理做出贡献。文章认为，欧盟正在建立一个坚实的后盾，在其不同的政策中成为全球空间治理的相关力量，但还有更多的潜力有待发挥，特别是在制定未来的空间法律和治理方面。
