The Routledge Handbook on Extraterritorial Human Rights Obligations is a comprehensive and extensive volume that brings together international scholarship on transnational human rights obligations. It offers a forward-looking perspective on how extraterritorial human rights obligations (ETOs) can be more fully recognized, outlining shortcomings and best state practices. The Handbook is organized into seven thematic parts: conceptualization and theoretical foundations, enforcement, migration and refugee protection, financial assistance and sanctions, finance, investment, and trade, peace and security, and environment. Each chapter combines a thorough analysis of a particular issue area with a forward-looking perspective on how ETOs can be more fully recognized. The Handbook builds insights gained from state practice to identify gaps in the literature and points to future avenues of inquiry. Chapters summarize the cutting edge of current knowledge on key topics, with leading experts critically reflecting on ETOs and engaging with the Maastricht Principles to evaluate their value 10 years after their adoption.
