| Charlene E. Makely describes in this book how the Tibetan Buddhist region of Labrang became incorporated into the People's Republic of China. The author did field work in and around the famous Geluk-sect Tibetan monastery and she also uses archival material for this study. She situates the process of incorporation in the violent upheavals of Maoist socialist transformation that took place from 1950 through the 1970s and in the transition to globalization via Deng Xiaoping's capitalist market reforms of the 1980s and 1990s. She shows in this book the gendered aspects of this process. Her conclusion ist that the incorporation had quite different effects for Tibetan men and women, creating painful dilemmas across generations. | |
