The places and their objects convey to society plentiful experience, emotions and give the possibility to act. As it is stressed in the paper, at present the close relationship between the village (native culture) and its inhabitants is very significant. In the author's opinion, it can reduce the migration from the country. Now we can see new division of land, new methods of farming and sometimes new infrastructure in the country. However the ageing of people and many old destroyed buildings are observable too. In the paper the village values from the side of urban people are investigated; the material shoes that inhabitants of cities value the village for its nature, fresh air, vast space, friendly people. Unattractive features arc old infrastructure, some degradation of villagers. People are connected with places physically or in their memory and imagination. Places are constructed of a particular constellation of relations articulated together at a particular locus, particular interactions and mutual articulations of social relations, social processes, experiences and understandings. In the investigation of space sociologists reveal different meanings of places: f. c. the risk of Ignalina Nuclear power station. In the culture of Visaginas inhabitants we feel the influence of Russian, Lithuanian and global culture. In the years of transition to democracy the question of national issue in Visaginas became a significant theme, as a desire to express identity and conscience. The process of democratization enables the voices of all national groups and gives them a possibility to have a right to maintain their heritage culture. The non-Lithuanian population has troubles with the understanding of the state language.

As human activity in outer space continues to boom, 50-year-old United Nations treaties on space law no longer address all of the current issues of international space law. The commercialization and privatization of outer space, potential harm to the cosmic environment, and a looming arms race in outer space are vital issues which encourage the international community to take serious actions. However, these issues are far more complicated than they appear. States and private companies are rushing to get involved in a new field with enormous potential, which makes reaching a consensus difficult and creates a barrier for international law-makers aiming to create new legally binding agreements for space. Nowadays, the international community addresses these legal issues by issuing non-legally binding recommendations. Meanwhile, nation states adopt laws at the national level. Accordingly, this Master Thesis consists of five main structural parts. The first part analyzes the concept of international space law as well as its history, and explores key UN space treaties and space law principles. The second, third, fourth and fifth parts address the main issues of international space law. These chapters address the legal issues on space commercialization, space resource utilization, space debris, and space militarization and weaponization.
