[EAN: 9780231118149], Gebraucht, guter Zustand, [PU: Columbia Univ Press, Jackson, Tennessee, U.S.A.], Jacket, First Edition, Second Printing. Minor bumping to top of DJ spine, elsewise a FINE, bright, clean, tight, scholar/collector-worthy copy. 17 black-and-white photographic illustrations with accompanying descriptive captions. "This definitive history of modern Tibet-based entirely on unpublished primary sources and written by a Western educated Tibetan author-shatters the popular perception of Tibet as an isolated Shangri la unaffected by broader international developments and rises above the simplistic dualism so often encountered in accounts of Tibet's contested recent history. Since 1950 Tibet has been sandwiched between the heavyweights of Asian geopolitics: Britain, absolving itself of its colonial dominion; India, finding its legs as a newly independent nation; China, seeking to simultaneously consolidate its new communist regime and engender a "motherland"; and the United States, striving to contain the perceived threat of international communism.Tsering Shakya here gives a balanced, blow-by-blow account of Tibet's desperate attempts to maintain her independence and safeguard her cultural identity." 574 pages. *NOTE: Due to size/weight of book significant additonal shipping cost will be required for out-of-U.S. shipment.
