Exopolitics

Exopolitics is a new scientific discipline that focuses on the political aspects of interactions with extraterrestrial life. It studies the key individuals, institutions and political processes that are associated with extraterrestrial life in general, as well as, more specifically, those associated with the extraterrestrial presence here on Earth. It therefore belongs to the political sciences.

Definitions of Exopolitics:

Michael Salla, founder of the Exopolitics Institute, gives two, complimentary, definitions:
- Exopolitics is the study of the key individuals, institutions and political processes associated with extraterrestrial life.
- Exopolitics is the study of the political implications of the extraterrestrial presence on Earth.
Alfred Webre 'invented' the word exopolitics and describes it as "the study of political process and governance in interstellar society."
Steve Basset uses the term 'Exopolitics' in 4 different meanings:
1. the art or science of government as concerned with guiding or influencing governmental policy toward extraterrestrial-related phenomena and extraterrestrial beings.
2. exopolitical actions, practices, or policies.
3. the exopolitical opinions or sympathies of a person.
4. the total complex of relations between the human race and non-human, intelligent beings.
The Wiktionary defines 'exopolitics' as the art or science of government as concerned with creating or influencing policy toward extraterrestrial phenomena and extraterrestrial beings.
Wikipedia: until April 2008: Exopolitics, a speculative branch of political science, is the study of possible contact and relations between humanity and extraterrestrial civilizations. (*) Since January 2009 Exopoliticsis defined as the hypothetical study of political relations between humans and extraterrestrial civilizations.

(*) Incomprehensibly, between April 2008 and January 2009 the wikipedia censored articles on exopolitics. The topic itself had even been removed.

Exopolitics movement and activism

The Exopolitics Institute mentions as its goals:

To promote research into the key actors, institutions and processes associated with evidence of an extraterrestrial presence.
To promote awareness and understanding of all evidence concerning different extraterrestrial races; and their impact on social, economic, cultural and political processes.
To promote peaceful cooperation with extraterrestrials that evidence suggests are aligned with the advancement of global peace, human empowerment, and human sovereignty.
To prepare humanity for open interaction with extraterrestrials whose existence is supported by credible evidence.
Assist in public dissemination of technologies that evidence suggests is extraterrestrial in origin.
To promote full public disclosure through an accelerated release of all evidence concerning an extraterrestrial presence in terms of history, agreements, technologies and activities.

A grassroots movement has emerged that focuses on exopolitical activism. The above mentioned goals also describe the activities of exopolitical activists rather well.

Apart from the Exopolitics Institute, and its founder Michael Salla, the most prominent activists are Steve Basset, Ed Komarek, Alfred Webre, and Scott Jones
