This territoriality principle has several distinct dimensions on the level of substantive IP law, private international law and international conventions. Whereas it is true that there are examples of an overly rigid territorial thinking, in particular as regards jurisdiction concerning foreign IP rights, one can also observe an opposite trend towards unilateral expansions of national jurisdiction to overcome the territorial limits of IP law. Namely, the local IP regime is applied extraterritorially to activity occurring in other territories. This article identifies the loophole in the territoriality principle, which allows for extraterritoriality in the first place. It then outlines relevant examples taken from the patent, copyright and trademark laws of different countries, predominantly from U.S. and German legislation and court practice. These examples are classified into two groups, depending on the primary purpose of the provision in question. Inbound regulation concerns situations in which a territory is shielded from spillover effects stemming from extraterritorial activities. Outbound regulation aims at enforcing the local IP regime with regard to activities and effects in foreign territories. The concluding section explains why unilateral “extraterritorialism” deserves as much scrutiny as does an overly rigid “territorialism”. 000042128 525__ $$aPublished in : Beyond Territoriality : Transnational Legal Authority in an Age of Globalization, Queen Mary Studies in International Law 000042128 605_0 $$aIntellectual property 000042128 650__ $$aTerritoriality 000042128 650_0 $$aExtraterritoriality 000042128 650_0 $$aTransit 000042128 650_0 $$aPatent 000042128 650_0 $$aTrademark 000042128 650_0 $$aCopyright 000042128 650_0 $$aTraditional knowledge 000042128 650_0 $$aSecondary infringement 000042128 650_0 $$aGerman law 000042128 85641 $$uhttps://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1592263$$yView this resource 000042128 904__ $$aJournal article 000042128 980__ $$aBIB
