- Abstract
Statelessness is the legal status of a person who had no citizenship or has lost it without acquiring another. Statelessness has expanded to become a matter of international law in the interwar period. It is caused by differences between laws of various states on the people who lose their citizenship, without being accepted by other states. This way, children of stateless parents are born stateless. Stateless, being deprived of any connection with a state are subject to state jurisdiction on present territory, where they are seen as foreigners. But, unlike foreigners who enjoy diplomatic protection of the state to which they belong, state less persons are not entitled to such protection.
