Courts without Borders is the first book to examine the politics of
judicial extraterritoriality, with a focus on the world's chief
practitioner: the United States. For much of the post-World War II
era, the United States has been a frequent yet selective regulator
of activities outside its territory, and US federal courts are
often on the front line in deciding the extraterritorial reach of
US law. At stake in these jurisdiction battles is the ability to
bring the regulatory power of the United States to bear on
transnational disputes in ways that other states frequently dislike
both in principle and in practice. This volume proposes a general
theory of domestic court behavior to explain variation in
extraterritorial enforcement of US law, emphasizing how the
strategic behavior of private actors is important to mobilizing
courts and in directing their activities.
