Journal Title: International Journal of Political Science, Law and International Relations (IJPSLIR) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
The State Succession is a process where one state takes over another state, either partially or completely. The term was first used by Jeremy Bentham. There is a treaty called the Vienna Convention, which was adopted on 22nd April 1963 by the United Nations Conference on Consular Relations held at the Neue Hofburg in Vienna, Austria, from 4th March to 22nd April 1963 and became open for signatures in 1978 and entered into force from 6th November 1996 which basically lays down guidelines for diplomatic relations between various states in the world. The State Succession was a way to show how powerful a state was, the parent state took over the predecessor state and exploited the state relentlessly for their personal benefits. Jurists have authored many theories on state succession namely socialistic, option, populace, and burden with profit theories are a few among them. When a state takes over another state they have responsibilities and there are peace agreements between the parent and extinct state at the time of acquiring and leaving the extinct/predecessor state.
