Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the institutional-legal mechanisms of managing the strategically important space industry in Ukraine. Scientific-theoretical research methods: abstraction, idealization, construction of hypotheses and models, documentary analysis and synthesis, objective truth, cognitive-analytical, etc. Results: the origin and historical genesis of constituent elements of institutional-legal mechanisms of the management of the space industry in Ukraine and the problems of adapting these mechanisms to the trends of the “new space,” are analyzed. The scientific aim is to contribute to developing the adequate and integrated legal regime of the management of the space industry in Ukraine and improving its institutional framework’s effectiveness. Discussion: the evolution of the institutional framework and of the national space industry and its legal regime is analyzed on the background of Ukraine’s space activities and trends of the “new space.” The management of the national space industry needs not a fragmentary but a comprehensive administrative legal regulation and its harmonization with the respective regime of the leading space-faring nations.
