Abstract
China views promoting space exports as a key national priority and is devoting considerable energy toward boosting its market share in the global space economy. This is yielding dividends, helping China become a major space exporter of satellites, launch services, and space data. This paper will examine the strategic rationale for China's expanding sales of satellites, space launch services, and space data, an understudied element of Chinese foreign policy. It will conclude that Beijing's sale of space products is strengthening China's national power by building technical dependencies, bolstering international prestige and cultural influence, accelerating the global adoption of Chinese technology, and proliferating space systems that China can sometimes access.
期刊介绍：
Space Policy is an international, interdisciplinary journal which draws on the fields of international relations, economics, history, aerospace studies, security studies, development studies, political science and ethics to provide discussion and analysis of space activities in their political, economic, industrial, legal, cultural and social contexts. Alongside full-length papers, which are subject to a double-blind peer review system, the journal publishes opinion pieces, case studies and short reports and, in so doing, it aims to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and opinions and a means by which authors can alert policy makers and international organizations to their views. Space Policy is also a journal of record, reproducing, in whole or part, official documents such as treaties, space agency plans or government reports relevant to the space community. Views expressed in the journal are not necessarily those of the editors or members of the editorial board.
