| Abstract: | The problem of extraterritorial application of the law has always existed, since the international community is divided into different States each enforcing its own legal order on its own territory. What is called to-day "economic globalization" - which is quite a vague expression that some authors translate as American economic domination - inevitably produces more and more conflicts of jurisdiction between the different States as they try, and mainly the most powerful of them, to reach economic phenomena that transcend their borders. |
