Description

Book Synopsis

This book offers a reinterpretation of the early encounters between the new Chinese Communist government, the Tibetan authorities, and the Tibetan population, as well as the gradual introduction of Leninist ideology on the Tibetan Plateau between 1949 and 1951--a decisive period for understanding the modern Tibetan question.
Drawing primarily on official and internal sources published or preserved in the People's Republic of China, most of them previously unused in academic research, this study sheds new light on the complex political dynamics and ideological transformations that shaped Tibet's integration into the PRC.
