| Abstract | The United States's assertion of prescriptive (or legislative) extraterritorial jurisdiction has been the subject of ample criticism. Extraterritorial jurisdiction, or simply extraterritoriality, is defined as the operation of a U.S. law so as to encompass activities where (1) the conduct at issue occurs within the U.S., but its effects take place abroad; (2) the conduct occurs abroad, but its effects take place in the U.S.; or (3) both the conduct and its effects occur abroad. Category (1) does not attract criticism as the occurrence of conduct within the U.S. is an internationally acceptable basis for U.S. jurisdiction. |
