Informationen zum Autor By Andrew Martin Fischer Klappentext This book explores the synergy between development and conflict in the Tibetan areas of Western China from the mid-1990s onward, when rapid economic growth occurred alongside a particularly assimilationist policy approach. Based on accessible economic analysis and extensive interdisciplinary fieldwork, it represents one of the only macro-level and systemic analyses of its kind in the scholarship on Tibet, and also holds much interest for those interested in China and in development and conflict more generally. This is an excellent and important study that anyone interested in understanding modern Sino-Tibetan relations must read! -- Melvyn C.
