This study aims to discuss the application of functionalist and spatialist theories in the delimitation of space within the context of the private exploitation of space tourism. From a methodological point of view, the research is a literature review, based on the main authors in the field, and a documentary analysis, which relies on international documents, international treaties, and national legislation. The work is divided into three chapters: the first focuses on problematizing the boundaries between airspace and outer space; the second looks at functionalist theory; and the third is dedicated to spatialist theory.
