Today's electronic Silk Roads ferry information across continents, enabling individuals and corporations anywhere to provide or receive services without obtaining a visa. But the legal infrastructure for such trade is yet rudimentary and uncertain. If an event in cyberspace occurs at once everywhere and nowhere, what law applies? How can consumers be protected when engaging with companies across the world? In this accessible book, cyber-law expert Anupam Chander provides the first thorough discussion of the law that relates to global Internet commerce. Addressing up-to-the-minute examples, such as Google's struggles with China, the Pirate Bay's skirmishes with Hollywood, and the outsourcing of services to India, the author insightfully analyzes the difficulties of regulating Internet trade. Chander then lays out a framework for future policies, showing how countries can dismantle barriers while still protecting consumer interests. 606 $aLaw and globalization$xEconomic aspects 606 $aElectronic commerce$xLaw and legislation 606 $aInternet$xSocial aspects 606 $aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLaw and globalization$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aElectronic commerce$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aInternet$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects. 676 $a381/.142 700 $aChander$b Anupam$01048469 702 $aVoskowsky$b Lindsey 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464727203321 996 $aThe electronic silk road$92476777 997 $aUNINA
