Abstract
This chapter provides recaps the principles of jurisdiction at international law, both in the context of jurisdictional authority of the State and jurisdictional obligations that follow the State extraterritorially. The adequacy of principles of jurisdictional restraint is reflected upon. Chapter 2 also introduces some of the contemporary challenges to traditional conceptions of jurisdiction, such as those presented by the internet and by increased human activity in outer space. Chapter 2 concludes with some brief observations on extraterritoriality in a contemporary context.
