das pequenas potĂȘncias europeias, colocando especial atenção no caso portuguĂȘs. Como
campo de observação, foram escolhidas quatro pequenas potĂȘncias: BĂ©lgica, Dinamarca,
Irlanda e Portugal.
AtravĂ©s da anĂĄlise da exploração que cada uma das quatro pequenas potĂȘncias selecionadas
faz do poder espacial, foi respondida a questĂŁo central âQual o contributo do poder espacial na
estratĂ©gia das pequenas potĂȘncias europeias, nas vertentes polĂtica, econĂłmica e de segurança
nacional?â, afirmando que o poder espacial das pequenas potĂȘncias europeias contribui
para a sua estratĂ©gia em trĂȘs vertentes: (i) permitindo que se tornem mais assertivas nas
relaçÔes internacionais e permitindo condicionar ou influenciar terceiros através de tratados
internacionais, (ii) promovendo conhecimento que se traduz em desenvolvimento tecnolĂłgico
e competitividade para o tecido empresarial e (iii) facultando acesso a produtos relevantes no
ùmbito da segurança.
