| Summary/Abstract |
While space capabilities were once concentrated among a handful of leading powers, an increasingly large number of states have gained access to them. As of 2007, 58 countries possessed dedicated civil space programs, 44 countries had placed nationally owned satellites into orbit, and 9 countries had achieved domestic space launch capabilities. To date, however, no systematic inquiries have ever been conducted into which countries acquire space capabilities and why. Within this paper, I develop an explanatory account that explores the capacity-based factors and political motivations that influence countries' acquisition of space capabilities. I test my hypotheses via a quantitative analysis of the factors affecting 143 countries' acquisition of civil space programs, satellite capabilities, and space launch capabilities from 1950 to 2002. My findings shed new light on the primary causes of the proliferation of civil space capabilities and yield a number of important policy implications

| Summary/Abstract |
The BRICS, both individually and collectively, have a noteworthy demographic advantage. BRICS constitutes 20% of total world population with a vast cross-continental economic, political and cultural background which may be a technical problem for a multi lateral forum. The impressive economic growth of BRICS countries can influence the global political economy. The five BRICS countries have started to increase their political and economic ties. It should be remembered that each of the BRICS countries has their economic patterns, and rise of the BRICS as a bloc is likely to pose a threat to these interdependencies.
