Abstract

Nowadays academia offers new approaches to understanding of state borders, territorial disputes, armed conflicts and wars. While the principles of territorial integrity and inviolability of frontiers are central to the current system of international law, they are sometimes inoperative before the law of force. Moreover, the peaceful resolution of territorial disputes contributes to international security. The purpose of this article is to examine the problems of the legitimacy of acquisition of territory in the past and present, as well as to provide insight into some issues related to the state sovereignty over disputed areas in international territorial disputes. The historical, comparative, inductive methods were used while researching the problem of legitimacy of acquisition of state territory. The study may be implicated during taking decisions concerning investments in Crimea, Transnistria or Nagorny Karabakh. Classification-JEL: K33
