Asian experience with extraterritoriality

Chapter 10 in Research Handbook on Extraterritoriality in International Law, 2023, pp 164-179 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Asia’s position on international law has been characterized by its passiveness. Although Asia accommodates the world’s largest population and strengthened economic growth, Asian countries are characterized as less forthcoming in terms of participation and representation in international regimes. This chapter examines the extent to which these views on Asian positions about international law apply to Asian countries’ attitudes toward extraterritoriality. For this purpose, it covers several areas of law rather than focusing on one specific area. By doing so, the chapter identifies certain trends, if not common strategic approaches, among Asian countries to extraterritoriality. The chapter’s primary focus is on prescriptive jurisdiction, and it looks at both outward and inward extraterritorial practices.
