    Making the State on the Sino-Tibetan Frontier: Chinese Expansion and Local Power in Batang, 1842-1939 William M. Coleman, IV Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2014 © 2013 William M. Coleman, IV All rights reserved Abstract Making the State on the Sino-Tibetan Frontier: Chinese Expansion and Local Power in Batang, 1842-1939 William M. Coleman, IV This dissertation analyzes the process of state building by Qing imperial representatives and Republican state officials in Batang, a predominantly ethnic Tibetan region located in southwestern Sichuan Province. Utilizing Chinese provincial and national level archival materials and Tibetan language works, as well as French and American missionary records and publications, it explores how Chinese state expansion evolved in response to local power and has three primary arguments. First, by the mid-nineteenth century, Batang had developed an identifiable structure of local governance in which native chieftains, monastic leaders, and imperial officials shared power and successfully fostered peace in the region for over a century. Second, the arrival of French missionaries in Batang precipitated a gradual expansion of imperial authority in the region, culminating in radical Qing military intervention that permanently altered local understandings of power. While short-lived, centrally-mandated reforms initiated soon thereafter further integrated Batang into the Qing Empire, thereby

  • Reform in Tibet
    REFORM IN TIBET AS A SOCIAL MOVEMENT By Luo Jia A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Education Graduate Department of Sociology & Equity Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Luo Jia (2009) ii REFORM IN TIBET AS A SOCIAL MOVEMENT Master of Education, 2009 Luo Jia Graduate Department of Sociology & Equity Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract Reform as a social process is underresearched in the case of Tibet. This study addresses this gap using Social Movement Theory, which sees social change as a complex process involving various Tibetan social groups and external reformers, the Communist Party of China (CPC). This approach was applied by comparing recruitment and mobilization efforts of several key internal and external reform movements in 20th century Tibetan history. Findings include that internal reform failures can be explained by their narrow social and geographic basis and limited mass appeal. Moreover, initial CPC reforms succeeded through recruitment and mobilization across Tibetan regions and social groupings. Subsequent reforms failed due to decreased attention to recruitment and mass mobilization of Tibetans. A major implication of the study is that understanding social reform in today‟s Tibet requires a SM Theory approach, which currently is lacking among scholars of the Tibetan question and political representatives of both sides. iii Acknowledgements While finishing this work, I thought it is not enough simply to say thanks because the support of many people are behind this research such as family, professors, helpers, and all the people whose work is related to this work.

  • To Increase the Benefits of Water Investment for Regional and National Development ---A Case Study of Shaanxi Province
    Global Water Partnership(China) WACDEP Work Package Three Outcome Report To increase the Benefits of Water Investment For Regional and National Development ---A case study of Shaanxi Province Research Office of Shaanxi Provincial People’s Congress Shaanxi Provincial Water Resources Department Xi’an Jiaotong University Copyright @ 2016 by GWP China Abstract Water is not only the indispensable and irreplaceable natural resources for human survival and development, but also very important strategic resources. Water is the infrastructure and the basic industry of the national economic and social development. With the economic growth, the pressure on scarce resources and ecological environment protection is highlighted. The need for government at all levels to speed up the water investment and improve people's welfare is pressing. Therefore, a comprehensive assessment of water investment in Shaanxi Province is of great practical significance. Relatively speaking, Shaanxi Province is short of water resources with less total amount and per capita share. In addition, the spatial distribution of water resources is also extremely unreasonable: the southern part of Shaanxi Province which is part of the Yangtze River basin takes up over 70% while the northern part which is highly populated with fast industrial development only shares 30% of it. The conflict between the demand for water resources and the distribution, to some extent, restrict the social and economic development. The Shaanxi Provincial Government has put the water sector in an important place. It is even so from 2010 to now with a dramatic increase on investment, reaching a total investment amount of 22.408 billion RMB in 2013.

  • The Art of Non-Violence Winning China Over to Tibet’S Story
    The Art of Non-violence Winning China Over to Tibet’s Story Thubten Samphel The Tibet Policy Institute 2017 The Art of Non-violence Winning China Over to Tibet’s Story Thubten Samphel The Tibet Policy Institute 2017 Published by: Tibetan Policy Centre CTA, Gangchen Kyishong, Dharamshala -176215 Distt. Kangra HP INDIA First Edition : 2107 No. of Copies : 200 Printed at Narthang Press, Central Tibetan Administration Gangchen Kyishong, Dharamshala, HP, INDIA Foreword I am happy that the Tibet Policy Institute has come out with The Art of Non-violence: Winning China Over to Tibet’s Story. The Tibetan outreach to our Chinese brothers and sisters is an important effort on the part of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the Central Ti- betan Administration (CTA) to persuade the Chinese public that the Tibetan people’s non-violent struggle is neither anti-China nor anti-Chinese people. This protracted struggle is waged against the wrong policies the Chinese Communist Party implements in Tibet. As a part of this effort to explain the nature of the Tibetan people’s struggle to the broader Chinese masses, CTA instituted many years ago a China Desk at the Department of Information and Interna- tional Relations (DIIR). The China Desk maintains a web site in the Chinese language, www.xizang-zhiye.org, to educate the Chinese public on the deteriorating conditions in Tibet, the just aspirations of the Tibetan people and a reasonable solution to the vexed issue of Tibet. The solution to this protracted issue is the Middle Way Approach which does not seek independence for Tibet but for all the Tibetan people to enjoy genuine autonomy as enshrined in the constitution of the People’s Republic of China.
