This book offers a reinterpretation of the early encounters between the new Chinese Communist government, the Tibetan authorities, and the Tibetan population, as well as the gradual introduction of Leninist ideology on the Tibetan Plateau between 1949 and 1951âa decisive period for understanding the modern Tibetan question.
Drawing primarily on official and internal sources published or preserved in the Peopleâs Republic of China, most of them previously unused in academic research, this study sheds new light on the complex political dynamics and ideological transformations that shaped Tibetâs integration into the PRC.
