Transnational Cyberspace Law

by Makoto Ibusuki (Editor)

This volume addresses the multiplicity of transnational legal issues involving the world wide web. Its aims are threefold. First it analyzes the international laws concerning cyberspace as well as important regional cases, policy and regulation; second, it explains the background to these laws and provides a commentary on both current problems and possible future developments. Third, it suggests new transnational proposals for solutions in some of the problem areas. The content of the book is wide-ranging, including issues of jurisdiction, lawyering in cyberspace, domain name and trade mark law, cyberspace and privacy, electronic commerce, defamation in the cyberspace, content regulation, ADR in cyberspace, digital signature, digital currency, and others.
