| Summary/Abstract |
THE ISSUE OF RECOGNITION OF STATES acquired a new relevance and topicality in connection with the declaration of independence by Kosovo, and then by South Ossetia and Abkhazia. Active debates were started concerning the basic criteria for the recognition of states; political and legal aspects of recognition, such as the emergence of a state as a subject of international law; the recognition of a state as a subject of international law only by a part of the international community, and its impact on the status of such a state. They became a subject of a recent roundtable discussion at the Institute for Contemporary International Studies, Diplomatic Academy of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
