It is becoming more clear to me how space changes the Star Trek imaginary of economy. For example, in The Next Generation, all encounters with the Ferengi (essentially the capitalists) are hostile, while in Deep Space Nine, encounters are normalized and somewhat civilized if one takes cultural differences into account.
One space is stationary, the other is not.
Voyager also is a moving space. I need to watch more of it to understand if it is the same or similar to TNG,
