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.
