Review: New Space Capitalism

Peter Hague, Planetocracy, June 5, 2026

“I would recommend that the anti-space crowd read this book as much as the pro-space crowd; and perhaps some of the space socialists mentioned in the book may be willing to challenge Dr. Zitelmann to a public debate.”

Space is the new frontier in economics

“Property rights underpin capitalism here on Earth, and they will have to underpin it in space as well. Zitelmann’s book concludes with an outline of what such a system could look like, analogous to the ‘homesteading’ laws that were used for the settlement of the American West from the 1860s onwards. Science fiction? No – just good economics.“
