Definition of nonrecognition

NONRECOGNITION

Nonrecognition is when one government refuses to acknowledge the legitimacy of another government.

  • During the Cold War, the United States did not recognize the communist government of North Korea.
  • Many countries do not recognize the government of Taiwan because they consider it a part of China.

These examples illustrate how nonrecognition can be used as a political tool. By refusing to recognize a government, a country can signal its disapproval of that government's policies or actions. Nonrecognition can also be used as a way to support a particular political agenda, such as recognizing a government in exile as the legitimate government of a country.
