【 摘 要 】

Purpose. We determine the allocation criteria and propose a classification of existing de facto unrecognized states. Methodology and Approach. Information about areas of limited international legal personality is analyzed, including the existing studies of unrecognized states in Russia and abroad. The study uses statistical, historical, and cartographic methods. Results. Institutionalized unrecognized states (IUS’s) are identified. IUS’s have a common feature of the geopolitical position, political structure, demographic potential, and economic development. Such pseudostates can be classified into three groups: post-socialist, post-colonial, and non-secessionist. Theoretical and Practical implications. The research materials can be used to classify zones of transit statehood in the world. A recommendation is given to show the actually existing unrecognized states on political maps published in Russia.
