TL;DR: The main value of the constitutive theory is in forcing the international jurists to formulate in clearer terms the inescapable conclusions that the act of recognition is essentially a political, diplomatic function having only slight legal consequences as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: and administrations when, considering especially the actual character of the power exercised by the new government, these effects are in conformity with the interests of good justice and the interest of individuals.\" 2 With all due respect to the scholarship and intellectual acumen of Dr. Kelsen, it would seem clear that the constitutive theory remains only a theory having slight relation to facts and precedents. Its main value is in forcing the international jurists to formulate in clearer terms the inescapable conclusions (1) that the act of recognition is essentially a political, diplomatic function having only slight legal consequences, and (2) that the courts are relatively free to consider all the facts relating to acts by a non-recognized state or government.
