CONT

Les doctrines légitimistes, telle la doctrine Tobar, refusent la reconnaissance à un gouvernement qui ne remplit pas certaines conditions de légalité interne; ainsi, l'établissement par la force et l'absence de légitimation constitutionnelle devraient entraîner la non-reconnaissance. Cette doctrine n'a pas de portée générale; elle ne s'est appliquée qu'à un nombre restreint d'États d'Amérique centrale et pour une durée limitée.
