Accountability in Extraterritoriality: A Comparative and International Law Perspective
Nation
states are increasingly asserting jurisdiction over criminal offenses
that occur extraterritorially. In some instances, this can cause
political tension and legal uncertainty, as the principles of
jurisdiction under international law do not adequately resolve competing
claims. In that context, this book considers principles of jurisdiction
and mechanisms by which to achieve jurisdictional restraint under
international law, including the possibilities presented by the abuse of
rights doctrine.
