Digital Sovereignty and Cross-Border Legal Authority

Digital platforms and AI systems are reshaping where legal authority is exercised. This paper explores conflicts of jurisdiction, extraterritorial rules and data governance, with particular attention to regulatory interactions involving Russia and China.

Research context and scope

Comparative legal, functional and systems analysis of digital platforms, cross-border data rules, jurisdictional claims and the interface between law and infrastructure.

Intellectual contribution

The paper argues that workable digital governance must address technological design and institutional coordination, not legislation alone. It introduces regulatory interfaces as sites where rules, protocols and platform practices interact.

Application and relevance

Relevant to comparative digital law, AI governance, cross-border compliance and regulatory interoperability.
