We are pleased to announce the publication of “Extraterritorial Application of Criminal Law”, a groundbreaking publication authored by the esteemed founder of our firm, Atty. LHOSNI S. This treatise is a significant contribution to the field of international criminal law, and addresses one of the most pressing and intricate issues in modern legal practice: the extraterritorial reach of criminal law. Drawing on years of experience and expertise, the author meticulously examines the principles and practices that underpin the application of national criminal laws beyond their territorial boundaries, with special emphasis on the intersection of state sovereignty, international legal obligations, and the protection of universal human rights.
This volume provides an exhaustive exploration of the legal doctrines surrounding extraterritoriality, providing an authoritative analysis of the complex dynamics involved when a state seeks to assert jurisdiction over criminal acts committed outside its own borders. The author discusses the legal foundations and limitations of extraterritorial jurisdiction, informed by both customary international law and the obligations imposed by treaties, conventions, and multilateral agreements. In doing so, the book explores key case law and judicial precedents, providing a detailed examination of the extraterritorial application of laws in a range of contexts, including transnational organized crime, corruption, terrorism, and violations of international humanitarian law.
This authoritative work is indispensable for legal scholars, practitioners, and policymakers engaged in international criminal law, human rights law, and the complexities of transnational legal frameworks. Its profound insights into the theoretical and practical aspects of extraterritorial criminal jurisdiction make it a vital reference for anyone working in this rapidly developing area of law.
For a more detailed overview of the structure and contents of the book, we invite you to download the PDF version of the table of contents, which provides further insight into the topics addressed within this exceptional work.
We are confident that this publication will serve as a key resource for advancing the understanding and application of international criminal law in the modern era.
