As a pioneer of the science of Sociology, in addition to reviewing the civilization of humanity from time to time, Ibn Khaldun often discussed the state and leadership. By laying down the principles of procedures for maintaining the existence of the state, he stressed that the dynamics and ups and downs of the state is a necessity. He then formulated this theory as Cycle Theory; that is a situation where a country experiences rapid progress at one time and will experience a setback and even collapse at another time. Departing from this, Ibn Khaldun often explained the importance of supporting elements of government. One of the most important elements in the state order according to Ibn Khaldun in his Muqaddimah is the figure of a leader. The ruler has an important role in maintaining the stability and sustainability of the country. One of the interesting things from other elements of forming a country is the concept of Asabiya. This concept plays an important role in determining the position of a ruler, determining state policy, even recruiting and eliminating elements whose benefits can be considered in the continuity of the state.

This work is focused on the development of methodologies in studying and understanding of the state border. Today, due to the formulated limologic concept, the "state border" is perceived as an integral and hierarchically organized system, being the result of a longstanding historical and geopolitical development, and is also the facet of ethnic and political identity.

This paper studies the evolution of theories on recognition of states. The recent question of the political status of Islamic States of Iraq and the Levant and other terrorist organisation who claim to have established a state poses a question as to what exactly determines the political status of a claimant state. The paper is divided into four main parts and the relevant examples are studied under each part. First, it studies the declaratory theory on the recognition of states. This theory lays down four requirements, on fulfilment of which it qualifies as a state. However, this theory does not hold true in today's scenario globalized and interdependent world. The example of Taiwan is given to support this argument. Second, the constitutive theory is studied which contends that the recognition by states determines the status of a claimant state. However, this theory is unviable as it reduces the process to highly political one. Third, in order to rectify the above two conflicting theories, the theory given by John Dugard on the role played by United Nations in recognition of states and the theory of Remedial Secession, which argues that a right to secede from the dominant state exists to a minority group which is exploited by the government in power, are studied. Lastly, there is holistic appraisal of the above theories mentioned with regard to the current political scenario.
