The article explores phenomenon so called “unrecognized states” that have achieved “de facto” in-dependence and real act in international relations, but not have the status of sovereign states. The author analyses the main conceptions of international recognition and the problems of their real implications, reveals UN procedures as effective mechanisms of widespread international recognition of new states as “real subjects” of the international law system.
