Tracing the current practice of extraterritorial lawmaking in fourteen countries and the EU, this volume provides a critical comparative perspective on the role of extraterritoriality within the international legal order.
Extraterritoriality is often understood as an exceptional, sometimes even illegitimate, form of state lawmaking—yet it is pervasive in contemporary practice. Countries around the world rely on extraterritorial regulation to protect local markets, in areas including competition law and data privacy. It is also recognized as a useful strategy to promote international human rights, and to address shared challenges as diverse as transnational crime, tax base erosion, and climate change. The normalization of extraterritoriality as a legal technique, however, has by no means resolved longstanding debates about its place in the international legal order. Containing in-depth studies of fifteen legal systems, this volume provides a critical comparative perspective on those debates.

Hannah L. Buxbaum is Professor and John E. Schiller Chair at Indiana University’s Maurer School of Law. She is an expert in the areas of private international law and international jurisdiction, with publications including Extraterritoriality/L’Extraterritorialité (co-editor, Brill, 2022). She is a member of the International Academy of Comparative Law and currently President of the American Society of Comparative Law.
