Making the State on the Sino-Tibetan Frontier: Chinese Expansion and Local Power in Batang, 1842-1939 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 demonstrating the viability of New Policy reforms and challenging the idea that the late Qing was a failed state. Finally, I posit that despite almost two decades of political, economic, and social upheaval in the post-Qing period, Nationalist officials’ ability to repel central Tibetan attempts to assert their authority over Batang while effectively denying multiple movements for autonomous self-rule by local Batang political activists who were also Nationalist Party representatives directly contributed to Batang’s incorporation into the Nationalist state. This analysis of Batang’s transition from an imperial domain of the Qing Empire to a county in the newly created province of Xikang in 1939 highlights China’s desultory and still incomplete transition from empire to nation.

I cannot but begin by breaking with convention to thank my wife, Asuka, for her unwavering support that has seen this project begin in a sun-drenched seminar room at the University of Hawai’i many years ago, move to the learned halls of Columbia University, absorb the demands of professional diplomacy across the globe, and reach its present form in northeast China. Her constant encouragement and good humor has been my source of inspiration. I would also like to extend my sincerest gratitude to Madeleine Zelin, my advisor. Through an unexpectedly long writing process, she has always offered insightful guidance, pushing me to connect local events in a far-flung corner of the Sino-Tibetan frontier to larger historical trends and ideas. Robert Barnett has also been a steadfast supporter of my research since I arrived at Columbia, and I cannot overstate how important his mentorship has been. I have been very fortunate to benefit from rich interactions with many other Columbia University professors and scholars, including Karen Barkey, who introduced me to the value of comparative studies; Gray Tuttle, whose scholarship demonstrates the importance of Tibet to our understandings of modern China; Sherry Ortner (now at UCLA), who showed me Tibet from its other borders; Carol Gluck, who was instrumental in bringing me to New York; Robert Hymes, whose historiographical acumen continues to amaze me; Michael Tsin (now at UNC Chapel Hill), who opened my eyes to the richness of modern Chinese history; and the late Pei-yi Wu, who pretended to love my strange classical texts from the Sino-Tibetan frontier as much as I did. I also wish to thank the entire staff of the C.V. Starr East Asian Library for their research assistance during my time at Columbia. ii This project began in Hawai’i, and my intellectual debt to Dru Gladney is immense. Dru was the ideal M.A. advisor whose introduction to the intricacies of anthropological theory continues to shape my thinking. Thanks to his ever-present encouragement, I am not only a better thinker; I am also a better surfer. Harry Lamley, also at Hawai’i, provided important feedback in this project’s early stages, for which I am grateful. I also had the great fortune to benefit from the wisdom of the late E. Gene Smith, whose infectious passion for the study of Tibet knew no bounds. I would be remiss not to thank the many language teachers that have given me access to the beautiful worlds of Chinese and Tibetan history. I am particularly indebted to Xu Long, Tenzin Norbu, Xia Jing, Rose Shen, Wang Sulan, Zhang Xuyin, and Yao Weili. Over the years this project has developed I have benefitted from many other people around the world, including (in rough geographic order): Fabio Lanza, Georgia Mickey, Ian Miller, Kwang-kyoon Yeo, David Atwill, Marielle Prins, AS, LT, Yanglin Dorje, Qin Heping, Lang Weiwei, Chen Bo, Douglas Wissing, Alex Gardner, Robert Bare, Michael Graham, and Stephen Sears. My thanks for their contributions, direct and indirect, are deeply heartfelt. I would also like to acknowledge the numerous organizations that provided financial support for research related to this project, including the U.S. Department of Education, the Social Science Research Council, the Weatherhead East Asian Institute at Columbia University, and the American Historical Association. And finally, I would like to thank my parents, Bill and Linda Coleman, for raising me with the curiosity to explore the world while not forgetting where I come from. iii For Asuka, who has always had faith iv List of Abbreviations BTXZ Batang xianzhi (巴塘县志) JJD Jiaowu jiaoan dang (教務教案檔) KPDM Khams phyogs dkar mdzes khul gyi dgon sde so so’i lo rgyus gsal bar bshad pa thub bstan gsal ba’i me long zhes bya ba bshugs, vol. 2 QCBDS Qingmo Chuan Dian bianwu dang’an shiliao (清末川滇边务档案史料) QSL Da Qing lichao shilu (大清歷朝實錄) QZZ Qingdai Zangshi zoudu (清代藏事奏牘) v Dates I present all dates first in the Julian solar calendar. I record Chinese date references following the Chinese lunar calendar with reign name first, followed by the year, month, and day. For example, GX 1.2.23 is the Chinese lunar calendar rendering for March 30, 1875. An asterisk (*) after a lunar calendar date indicates it occurred during an intercalary month. I use the following abbreviations for Qing imperial reign names: SZ Shunzhi (1644-1661) KX Kangxi (1662-1722) YZ Yongzheng (1723-1735) QL Qianlong (1736-1795) JQ Jiaqing (1796-1820) DG Daoguang (1821-1850) XF Xianfeng (1851-1861) TZ Tongzhi (1862-1874) GX Guangxu (1875-1907) XT Xuantong (1908-1911) vi Notes on Transliteration For the purposes of this work, I have transliterated Tibetan terms and proper nouns that appear in the body of this dissertation in such a way as to render them easily pronounceable to English speakers. Upon the first appearance of a Tibetan term or proper noun, I have included a transliteration of the word according to the Wylie Transliteration System following it in parenthesis.1 I have also transliterated Tibetan terms and proper nouns in Tibetan language works that appear in footnotes and/or the bibliography according to the Wylie system unless the author(s) have provided alternative English transliterations. I have transliterated Chinese terms, place names, and personal names according to the standard Hanyu Pinyin system (漢語拼音), except in such cases where other transliterations are more familiar, such as Sun Yat-sen (孫中山). Chinese characters appear in parenthesis after the first occurrence of proper nouns and key words or phrases that may be best understood in the original language. Chinese does not have a standard method to transliterate Tibetan terms, place names, or personal names. As a result, it is not always clear to what object, location, or person a Chinese author may be referring when he transliterates Tibetan into Chinese. When the original Tibetan term or place name to which a Chinese transliteration refers is indisputable, I use the Tibetan term or place name, except in some cases when the Chinese term or place name occurs more commonly in discourse of the time. When the original Tibetan term or place name is uncertain, I retain the Chinese transliteration of the term or place name. Although

  • THE SECURITISATION of TIBETAN BUDDHISM in COMMUNIST CHINA Abstract
    ПОЛИТИКОЛОГИЈА РЕЛИГИЈЕ бр. 2/2012 год VI • POLITICS AND RELIGION • POLITOLOGIE DES RELIGIONS • Nº 2/2012 Vol. VI ___________________________________________________________________________ Tsering Topgyal 1 Прегледни рад Royal Holloway University of London UDK: 243.4:323(510)”1949/...” United Kingdom THE SECURITISATION OF TIBETAN BUDDHISM IN COMMUNIST CHINA Abstract This article examines the troubled relationship between Tibetan Buddhism and the Chinese state since 1949. In the history of this relationship, a cyclical pattern of Chinese attempts, both violently assimilative and subtly corrosive, to control Tibetan Buddhism and a multifaceted Tibetan resistance to defend their religious heritage, will be revealed. This article will develop a security-based logic for that cyclical dynamic. For these purposes, a two-level analytical framework will be applied. First, the framework of the insecurity dilemma will be used to draw the broad outlines of the historical cycles of repression and resistance. However, the insecurity dilemma does not look inside the concept of security and it is not helpful to establish how Tibetan Buddhism became a security issue in the first place and continues to retain that status. The theory of securitisation is best suited to perform this analytical task. As such, the cycles of Chinese repression and Tibetan resistance fundamentally originate from the incessant securitisation of Tibetan Buddhism by the Chinese state and its apparatchiks. The paper also considers the why, how, and who of this securitisation, setting the stage for a future research project taking up the analytical effort to study the why, how and who of a potential desecuritisation of all things Tibetan, including Tibetan Buddhism, and its benefits for resolving the protracted Sino- Tibetan conflict.

Hence, while the precise identification of the names and numbers of American travelers in the Tibetan border regions of Amdo and Kham — the regions of Tibet immediately accessible from China and Mongolia — are difficult to ascertain, let alone verify, visitors to the putative capital of Tibet (intellectually and culturally, if not politically) are well-documented.

Mycosphere 5(1), 27–76, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/5/1/2 Abstract A total of 36 species of Hypogymnia are known from southwestern China. This region is a center of biodiversity for the genus. Hypogymnia capitata, H. nitida, H. saxicola, H. pendula, and H. tenuispora are newly described species from Yunnan and Sichuan. Olivetoric acid is new as a major lichen substance in Hypogymnia, occurring only in H. capitata. A key and illustrations are given for the species known from this region, along with five species from adjoining regions that might be confused or have historically been misidentified in this region. Key words – Lecanorales – lichenized ascomycetes – Parmeliaceae – Shaanxi – Sichuan – Tibet – Yunnan – Xizang. Introduction The first major collections of Hypogymnia from southwestern China were by Handel- Mazzetti, from which Zahlbruckner (1930) reported six species now placed in Hypogymnia, and Harry Smith (1921-1934, published piecewise by other authors; Herner 1988). Since the last checklist of lichens in China (Wei 1991), which reported 16 species of Hypogymnia from the southwestern provinces, numerous species of Hypogymnia from southwestern China have been described or revised (Chen 1994, Wei & Bi 1998, McCune & Obermayer 2001, McCune et al.

  • High Peaks, Pure Earth
    BOOK REVIEW HIGH PEAKS, PURE EARTH COLLECTED WRITINGS ON TIBETAN HISTORY AND CULTURE BY HUGH RICHARDSON A COMPILATION OF A SERIES OF PROGRAMS ON RADIO FREE ASIA TIBETAN SERVICE BY WARREN W. SMITH 1 HIGH PEAKS, PURE EARTH High Peaks, Pure Earth is the title of the collected works on Tibetan history and culture by Hugh Richardson, a British diplomat who became a historian of Tibet. He was British representative in Lhasa from 1936 to 1940 and again from 1946 to 1950, during which time he did many studies on ancient and modern Tibetan history. He wrote numerous articles on Tibetan history and culture, all of which have been published in this book of his collected writings. Hugh Richardson was born in Scotland, a part of Great Britain that bears some similarities to Tibet, both in its environment and in its politics. Scotland has long had a contentious relationship with England and was incorporated only by force into Great Britain. Richardson became a member of the British administration of India in 1932. He was a member of a 1936 British mission to Tibet. Richardson remained in Lhasa to become the first officer in charge of the British Mission in Lhasa. He was in Lhasa from 1936 to 1940, when the Second World War began. After the war he again represented the British Government in Lhasa from 1946 to 1947, when India became independent, after which he was the representative of the Government of India. He left Tibet only in September 1950, shortly before the Chinese invasion. Richardson lived in Tibet for a total of eight years.
