Abstract

In the system of international law the institute of international legal recognition of states acquired a special urgency. It is connected with a problem that arises with the emergence of unrecognized territorial entities which claim the status of independent states. The author gives the classification of such territorial formations. As the result of analysis, the author concludes, that only those territorial entities, that are created in conformity with the norms and principles of international law can claim to be recognized. Conversely, territorial entities that are created in the violation of international law cannot be recognized. In such cases, those States whose territorial unity was destructed by such illegal separatist and unrecognized community creation, can use any methods to liquidate such formations (for example, Islamic State and Levant).
