Jurisdictional Challenges in Legal Disputes Involving Digital Platforms Operating Globally Vis A Vis Enforcement of Legal Approaches Across Different Jurisdictions

Abstract

Every country around the globe is now host of multiple digital platforms and after years of denial, now the governments are inclined towards regulation of diverse digital platforms to maintain social order, national security and protection of individual rights. Today one of the greatest and the difficult goal is to preserve “digital sovereignty”. It is well evident that there is diversity in the international regime with respect to the approaches to regulate the digital platforms. Hence this research paper will take a tour at divergent approaches of regulation of different states with an attempt to identify the basic trends across the global database related to conflicting jurisdictional approaches and to explore how these approaches diverge and interact in a global setting. Also, research paper will explore the five global regulatory approaches Finally, the paper will provide a deep insight to a potential model approach for regulation of these online platforms.
