Popis: The article focuses on the presence of real risks to sustainable development, which manifest in the everyday reality of today. Attention is drawn to this issue in the context of the privileged position of certain states over others, enabling them to advance the concept of “war and peace” in their favor. Evidence is presented to confirm the lack of security guarantees even when adhering to international norms and having official agreements. The problems of state monopolies and individual private entities violating the principle of equality are outlined. The consequences of this phenomenon are demonstrated in the context of regulating outer space. Other challenges for ensuring collective security are characterized through the lens of the absence of sovereignty of any country within the confines of outer space. Various conflict resolution options for violations of rules or the order of space activities are identified, emphasizing the need to develop new rules for space flights and stay on space objects, followed by the implementation of different standards of behavior in space. The overall coherence of the material is achieved through the cumulative use of fundamental research methods such as analysis, argumentation, and presentation of evidence.
