Description

In this ground-breaking study, Hsiao Ting Lin demonstrates that theChinese frontier was the subject neither of concerted aggression on thepart of a centralized and indoctrinated Chinese government nor of anideologically driven nationalist ethnopolitics.

Instead, Nationalistsovereignty over Tibet and other border regions was the result ofrhetorical grandstanding by Chiang Kai-shek and his regime.

Tibetand Nationalist China’s Frontier is invaluable for anunderstanding of past and present China-Tibet relations. Tibet and Nationalist China’s Frontier makes acrucial contribution to the understanding of past and presentChina-Tibet relations.

A counterpoint to erroneous historicalassumptions, this book will change the way Tibetologists and modernChinese historians frame future studies of the region.
