"... by exhaustively documenting and analysing State practice with respect to governments in exile, Talmon provides an extremely valuable contribution to the academic discussion of the various effects recognition might entail. His specific survey of rights States have attributed to governments in exile will moreover serve as a helpful reference for courts and practitioners." - Austrian Review of International and European Law
"This is one of the most accomplished monographs that I have read in recent years. It deserves great success." - Vaughan Lowe, The Cambridge Law Journal
