Libel tourism refers to a situation in which, despite the existence of several competent courts, the claimant can file a defamation lawsuit in country whose laws are beneficial, while there is a little connection between the jurisdiction and the claim. This phenomenon has created many concerns regarding the violation of the rights of individuals, media and freedom of expression. Therefore, legal systems should prevent the spread of this phenomenon by creating appropriate jurisdiction rules that guarantee the existence of sufficient connection between the claim and the court. But what kind of jurisdictional rule can be considered appropriate for defamation lawsuits? This research has been used descriptive-analytical method in a comparative way and library sources. The main objective of the current research is to provide a favorable rule of jurisdiction while studying the rules of international jurisdiction of the Iranian and English legal systems to prevent the spread of the libel tourism. The findings of this article show that the rules of Iranian international jurisdiction provide the possibility of abuse for defamation claimants, which can cause the spread of the phenomenon of libel tourism in this country, and it is necessary for its jurisdiction rules to be modified. But the English legal system has been able to prevent the formation of the phenomenon of libel tourism to some extent by granting the authority to exercise jurisdiction in defamation lawsuits. The results of this research shows that the jurisdictional rule that gives the court the power to decide on the exercise of its jurisdiction based on the issues surrounding each case and determine the most appropriate place to hear the case, is the most appropriate rule.
