According to which theory/doctrine, it is stated that act of recognition alone confers international personality on an entity purporting to be a state or clothes new government with an authority to enter into international relations ?
Answer: B
This is the constitutive theory.
Associated with Hegel, Anzilotti and Oppenheim, the constitutive theory holds that it is recognition by existing states that creates, or constitutes, the international personality of a new state or the authority of a new government.
The declaratory theory holds the reverse: statehood exists once the factual criteria are met, and recognition merely acknowledges it. The Estrada doctrine (Mexico, 1930) avoids formal recognition of governments altogether, and the Stimson doctrine (USA, 1932) refuses recognition to situations brought about by force.
