DESCRIPTION | HYPOTHESES | TABLE OF CONTENTS | READ THE BOOK BEFORE BUYING


The book elaborates on the following hypotheses:

  • Activities on the Internet are subject to geographical borders, and it is possible to identify factors that are relevant in assessing where activities on a website are directed.
  • Private parties are better able to carry out traditional cross-border law enforcement than public authorities.
  • The freedom to provide goods and services in combination with the 2000 E-Commerce Directive restricts the possibilities of cross-border law enforcement (both public and private law enforcement as well as traditional and alternative law enforcement).
  • Law enforcers established outside the Internal Market have limited access to traditional cross-border law enforcement against the Business, whereas alternative cross-border law enforcement can be applied.
  • Businesses can mitigate the risks of cross-border law enforcement by applying geographical delimitation and by entering into agreements on forum and applicable law.
  • The laws of the Internal Market limit the Business's possibilities in applying geographical delimitation.
