Unrecognized states are territories that have achieved de facto
independence, yet have failed to gain international recognition as
independent states. These territories constitute anomalies in the
international system of sovereign states and often present
significant challenges to policy makers, as evidenced by the war in
Georgia and the continued debate over Kosovo's independence. This
book draws on both theory and case studies to better understand the
phenomenon of unrecognized states, demonstrating that the existence
of such entities is less unusual than previously assumed. Moving
away from an overt focus on case studies, the chapters present
various themes that link the emergence, operations, and development
of unrecognized states and assess how the established order of
states responds to the challenges they present: * How do
unrecognized interact with the international system of sovereign
states? How does it shape their emergence, operations and
development? * How do these entities develop in a context of
non-recognition? * Are we witnessing a new form of statehood, or
are these entities better understood as states-in-waiting? * What
are the strategies available for dealing with unrecognized states?
Could power-sharing or autonomy provide a solution or are more
innovative strategies necessary? With contributions from leading
scholars in a number of fields, this book will appeal not only to
students and scholars of Political Science, International
Relations, Geography, Area Studies, Sociology, and Conflict
Resolution, but also to journalists, government bodies and NGOs.
