ABSTRACT
The LAS Convention, however, reflects the political and social values of its signatories while ensuring that sovereignty retains its prime importance. This latter aspect is also evident in the CIS Agreement, which serves more of a coordinating function. Finally, the SCO Agreement empowers its signatories with new offences and institutional capabilities related to cybercrime whilst enshrining sovereignty as a fundamental premise. In all, the regimes reflect the political, social and institutional histories of their signatories shared in each region. Why this is the case, how this plays out in practice, and what this means for transnational criminal law in general is the focus of the remainder of this paper.
