DETAILED STUDY ON RECOGNITION STATUS OF INSURGENT AND BELLIGERENT ORGANIZATIONS

Abstract

Coming to the literal interpretation of Insurgent organization and belligerent organization the
system of government running parallel to the government of the State and which does not
purport to the legal identification of the same and when the same recognised by the State
comes under the purview of the belligerent organization. Examples in support of the same are
put in the research paper pertaining to LTTE, FARC-EP, CPN-M which need to be explained
concerning their recognition status and involvement of Human rights law in the same.
Insurgent Organization
The insurgent forces in Iraq, Status of LTTE, Guantemela, Syria and Libya whether all these
existing groups form part of it will be recognise the status of the Insurgent Organization.
Belligerents Organization
The country will recognize the belligerent's lawful right to wage war and could gain
recognition as a state. Example: Syria recognizes the Iraqi force as a belligerent force then
recognizes territory already controlled by them.
Research Question
1. What will be the rights and obligation when the belligerent status would come into
recognition?
2. Can there be effectiveness in the governance if the Insurgent group are recognised and
forms a part of de-jure government?
