Warren Smith explores Tibet's ethnic and national origins, the birth of the Tibetan state, the Buddhist state and its relations with China, Tibet's quest for independence, and the Chinese takeover of Tibet after 1950. Focusing especially on post-1950 Tibet under Chinese Communist rule, Smith analyzes Marxist-Leninist and Chinese Communist Party nationalities theory and policy, their application in Tibet, and the consequent rise of Tibetan nationalism. Concluding that the essence of the Tibetan issue is self-determination, Smith bolsters his argument with a comprehensive analysis of modern Tibetan and Chinese political histories Notes Vendor-supplied metadata Subject Nationalism -- China -- Tibet Autonomous Region International relations Nationalism Politics and government SUBJECT Tibet Autonomous Region (China) -- Politics and government. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85135220 Tibet Autonomous Region (China) -- Relations -- China China -- Relations -- China -- Tibet Autonomous Region Subject China China -- Tibet Autonomous Region Form Electronic book ISBN 9780367274771 0367274779 9781000612288 1000612287 9781000617085 1000617084 9781000607390 1000607399
