Routledge is publishing a new book
dealing i.a. with the history of legal extraterritoriality.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Questions of legal
extraterritoriality figure prominently in scholarship on legal pluralism,
transnational legal studies, international investment law, international human
rights law, state responsibility under international law, and a large number of
other areas. Yet many accounts of extraterritoriality make little effort to
grapple with its thorny conceptual history, shifting theoretical valence, and
complex political roots and ramifications.
This book brings together thirteen
scholars of law, history, and politics in order to reconsider the history,
theory, and contemporary relevance of legal extraterritoriality. Situating
questions of extraterritoriality in a set of broader investigations into
state-building, imperialist rivalry, capitalist expansion, and human rights
protection, it tracks the multiple meanings and functions of a distinct and
far-reaching mode of legal authority. The fundamental aim of the volume is to
examine the different geographical contexts in which extraterritorial regimes
have developed, the political and economic pressures in response to which such
regimes have grown, the highly uneven distributions of extraterritorial
privilege that have resulted from these processes, and the complex theoretical
quandaries to which this type of privilege has given rise.
The book will be of considerable
interest to scholars in law, history, political science, socio-legal studies,
international relations, and legal geography.
