This article aims to analyze the inequality of geostationary orbits (GSO) utilization in world-system environment using World-systems Theory through qualitative-descriptive analysis. The high level of difficulty in mastering GSO technologies makes countries that do not have financial capacities and space capabilities inevitably use developed countries' GSO satellite products. Based on historical and conceptual approach of the World-systems Theory, the results of the analysis show that inequality of the utilization of GSO is caused by and impacts on the persistence as well as revision of relations among countries in a world-system environment. Class struggle is an action taken naturally by semi-peripheral and periphery countries, including Indonesia, to revise the world-system environment through enhancing autonomy and promote more equitable regulations in GSO utilization. AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis ketimpangan pemanfaatan orbit geostasioner (GSO) dalam lingkungan sistem dunia dengan menggunakan Teori Sistem Dunia secara kualitatif-deskriptif. Tingginya tingkat kesulitan penguasaan teknologi dalam pemanfaatan GSO membuat negara-negara yang tidak memiliki kemampuan finansial dan kapabilitas keantariksaan suka tak suka menggunakan produk-produk satelit GSO dari negara-negara maju. Berdasarkan pendekatan historis dan konseptual dari Teori Sistem Dunia, hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa ketimpangan pemanfaatan GSO diakibatkan oleh dan berdampak pada persistensi maupun revisi hubungan antarnegara dalam lingkungan sistem dunia. Perjuangan kelas merupakan tindakan yang dilakukan secara alami oleh negara-negara semi-pinggiran dan pinggiran, termasuk Indonesia, untuk merevisi lingkungan sistem dunia dengan cara meningkatkan kemandirian dan mempromosikan pengaturan yang lebih adil dalam pemanfaatan GSO.
