But where do rules about territorial legal limits such as this one come from? Why does geography make a difference for what legal rules apply? The legal and political basis for territorial jurisdiction is poorly understood. In this novel and accessible treatment of territoriality in American law and foreign policy, Raustiala begins by tracing the history of the subject from its origins in post-revolutionary America to the Indian wars and overseas imperialism of the 19th century. He then takes the reader through the Cold War and the globalization era before closing with a powerful explanation of America's attempt to increase its extraterritorial power in the post-9/11 world.Oxford scholarship online.Conflict of lawsJurisdictionUnited StatesEffectiveness and validity of lawUnited StatesExterritorialityAliensUnited StatesAmericansLegal status, laws, etcUnited StatesUnited StatesForeign relationsLaw and legislationConflict of lawsJurisdictionEffectiveness and validity of lawExterritoriality.AliensAmericansLegal status, laws, etc.342.73/0413Raustiala Kal256767MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818400803321Does the constitution follow the flag?245674UNINA
