Critical Acclaim
‘Charlotte Beaucillon and her 27 co-authors have produced a true “Treatise on extraterritorial sanctions” with an orderly plan that makes it possible to cover a formidably complex subject from various angles. Often confiscated by the common law doctrine, this theme is the object of cross-perspectives by specialists with very diverse backgrounds, which enrich one another while not detracting from the didactic clarity of the book. A major contribution to the knowledge of a key phenomenon of contemporary international relations.’
– Alain Pellet, Université Paris Nanterre, France
‘The Research Handbook on Unilateral and Extraterritorial Sanctions provides an impressive collection of contributions on a topic of ever-growing importance. Beaucillon has aptly managed to bring together some of the main experts in this burgeoning field to put together what is perhaps the most comprehensive volume to-date dedicated specifically to extraterritorial sanctions. The book provides a useful tour d’horizon, mapping different regional perspectives on extraterritorial sanctions, and addressing their legality and impact on companies and individuals in a structured manner. Leaving no stone unturned, the book will be of significant value to scholars, practitioners and policy-makers alike.’
