  • 1 Revival of Indigenous Practices and Identity in 21St Century Inner Asia
    Revival of Indigenous Practices and Identity in 21st Century Inner Asia Amalia H. Rubin A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in International Studies University of Washington 2015 Committee: Sara Curran Wolfram Latsch Program Authorize to Offer Degree: International Studies 1 © Copyright 2015 Amalia H. Rubin 2 University of Washington Abstract Revival of Indigenous Practices and Identity in 21st Century Inner Asia Amalia H Rubin Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sara Curran, Ph.D. Associate Professor of International Studies and Public Affairs Scholars and observers have noticed an emerging pattern in the world wherein communities that have suffered a period of cultural and religious repression, when faced with freedom, experience a sudden surge in certain aspects of cultural practice. The most interesting of these are the so-called “involuntary” practices, such as trance, and spontaneous spirit possession. Why is it that, in the period of freedom when many missionary groups, traditional and foreign, arrive to make claims on souls, we see a disproportionate resurgence of indigenous, non-missionary practices? And why especially those practices in which the practitioner has no conscious control? I aim to explore the significance of the revival of indigenous practices, both voluntary and involuntary, their connection to the assertion of cultural identity after a period of intense repression, and their significance to the formation of development and research approaches in such regions. In this paper, I will look at two examples of cultural revival: 3 Böö Mörgöl (commonly referred to as “Mongolian Shamanism” or “Tengerism”) in Ulaanbaatar, Republic of Mongolia, and the revival of Gesar cultural and religious practices in Kham, Tibet, primarily in Yushu, Qinghai province, China.

  • Flora and Fauna of Mongolia
    Flora and Fauna of Mongolia Johannes Lundberg Introduction Don't expect any strange looking completely unfamiliar plants! The area we will visit is actually not more exotic than a part of the Mediterranean Flora Region, even though the Central Asian subregion of Mediterranean is the eastern-most. This means that we will be able to recognice all (or at least most) plant families and many genera, but few species although they may resemble species we are familiar with. The nothern boundary to the Eurasian forest subregion of the Holarctic (i.e., the same subregion as Scandinavia) is found in Mongolia, more or less tracking the line of the world watershed. Mongolian Division of the Mongolian Province The northern parts of Mongolia (i.e., north of the World Water Divide) fall in the Eurasian subregion of the Holarctic and is not considered as a part of the Mongolian Province. This include, i.a., Ulaanbaatar, Tsetserleg and the Khangayn Nuruu mountains, Uliastay, and Bayankhongor. The vegetation here will be a taiga vegetation. Large part of our travel will however be in the Mongolian Division; this division can be subdivided into 13 districts: 1. Khobdo (mountain steppe, barren). Northern part of Mongolian Altai in the basins of Khovd Gol and Üüreg Nuur. Not visited by us. 2. Mongolian Altay (mountain steppe). All the mountain ranges of Mongolian Altay (Mongol Altayn Nuruu), also including Tayshiryn Uul and Adzhi-Bogdo of Tabyn-Bogdo Ol, and extending far into the Gobi. The climate is extremely cold and dry. Annual mean temperature is -4 to -6 °C, 35 with a January mean temperature at -24 °C and in July +12 °C.

  • Branding Mongolia As a Travel Destination To
    <MBA Degree Thesis> AY 2018 COUNTRY BRANDING: BRANDING MONGOLIA AS A TRAVEL DESTINATION TO JAPANESE TOURISTS 57160508-7 BAASANJAV OCHIRKHUYAG BUSINESS STRATEGY AND GENERAL MANAGEMENT C.E. PROF. KOJI AIBA D.E. PROF. SHIGERU ASABA D.E. PROF. HIROSHI KANNO Summary Since the term country or nation branding first emerged in scholarly articles in the 1990s, the notion has become a widespread phenomenon all around the world. Today, there are various specialty country branding firms which rank countries based on their relative brand powers and consult national and city governments in building a positive country/city brand for themselves. This research paper’s objective is to help improve Mongolia’s country brand by promoting its tourism industry to Japanese inbound tourists. In coming up with strategic recommendations on branding the country’s tourism industry, the study, first, analyzes Mongolia’s tourism industry, its country profile, historic, geographic, cultural and political characteristics to offer a holistic overview of the country and its appeals from an inbound tourist’s perspective. The study, then, analyzes Japan’s outbound tourism market and its characteristics to gain a better understanding of Japanese tourists. The paper, also, includes a case study of Finland branding strategy in Japan to understand success factors and learn from practical campaigns, which proved successful in Japan. Based on the analysis, the paper proposes strategic recommendations for the Mongolia brand regarding its brand hierarchy, product mix, marketing and communication strategy as well as other structural improvements. The study suggests that Mongolia should communicate the same brand promise of “Mongolia, Nomadic by Nature” to Japanese target consumers as other international tourists.
