This is the first book to examine the US politics of judicial extraterritoriality, the practice of domestic courts unilaterally applying domestic laws to conduct and persons outside the US borders. This volume proposes and tests a general theory of domestic court behavior to explain variation in extraterritorial enforcement of US law.
1. Introduction; 2. A theory of judicial extraterritoriality; 3. US domestic courts and transnational governance; 4. Extraterritoriality in the absence of agreement: international antitrust; 5. Extraterritoriality's limits and US bargaining over intellectual property protections; 6. US extraterritoriality and human rights: shaping a treaty regime from within; 7. The waning of US extraterritoriality?
