Extraterritorial jurisdiction stands at the juncture of
international law and animal law and promises to open a path to
understanding and resolving the global problems that challenge the
core of animal law. As corporations have relocated and the animal
industry (agriculture, medical research, entertainment, etc.) has
dispersed its production facilities across the territories of
multiple states, regulatory gaps and fears of a race to the bottom
have become a pressing issue of global policy. This book provides
enough background to allow readers to understand why
extraterritorial jurisdiction must respond to these developments,
counters objections that readers might raise, and describes how to
improve animal law in tandem. The heart of the work is a
fully-fledged catalogue of options for extraterritorial
jurisdiction, which states can employ to strengthen their animal
laws. The book offers top-down perspectives drawn from general
international law and trade law, and complements them by a
bottom-up up view from the perspective of animal law. The approach
connects the law of jurisdiction to substantive law and opens up
deeper questions about moral directionality, state and corporate
duties owed animals, and the comparative advantages of
constitutional, criminal, and administrative animal law. To ensure
that extraterritorial animal law does not become complicit in
oppressing ethnic and cultural minorities, the book offers critical
interdisciplinary perspectives, informed by posthumanist and
postcolonialist discourse. Readers will further learn when and how
extraterritorial jurisdiction violates international law, and the
consequences of exercising it illegally under international law.
This work answers questions about how and why extraterritorial
jurisdiction can overcome the steepest hurdles for animal law and
help move us toward a just global interspecies community. This is

offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access
