| - '... by exhaustively documenting and analysing State practice with respect to governments in exile, Talmon provides an extremely valuable contribution to the academic discussion of the various effects recognition might entail. His specific survey of rights States have attributed to governments in exile will moreover serve as a helpful reference for courts and practitioners.' - Austrian Review
of International and European Law
- 'This is one of the most accomplished monographs that I have read in recent years. It deserves great success.' - Vaughan Lowe, The Cambridge Law Journal

| Description | | - The first major study in English on 'recognition' of governments for over 50 years
- Truly international and up-to-date in its coverage
- Of genuine interest to lawyers in international organizations and government departments
- Contains the very latest source materials
- The author uses the very latest source materials, providing the reader with a comprehensive and completely up-to-date analysis
| | Based on an analysis of the diplomatic practice of States, and decisions by national and international courts, this book explores the two central questions of the recognition of governments. These are namely: what are the meanings of the term 'recognition' and its variants in international law; and what is the effect of recognition on the legal status of foreign authorities, and in particular
of authorities in exile recognized as governments. The book is comprehensive in its analysis of the issues, and covers material which is of significant historical interest, as well as highly topical material such as recent developments in Angola, Kuwait and Haiti. Thus Talmon's book will hold great appeal for international law scholars and practitioners alike. It may also be of interest to
diplomats and civil servants working in organizations such as the United Nations. |
