西藏問題國際紛爭的背景、流變及視域

　　本書為國外藏學(xué)研究成果，2015年先由法蘭克福Zambon出版社以德文出版，作者阿爾伯特？艾廷格（Albert Ettinger）系盧森堡著名藏學(xué)家，該書系統(tǒng)梳理了“問題”由來，對其何以漫及國際的背景和歷程做了獨到敘述和分析，結(jié)合中國統(tǒng)一多民族國家的歷史文化傳統(tǒng)特點，展望所謂“問題”漸次式微的前景，公允得出西藏自古以來是中國領(lǐng)土一部分的客觀結(jié)論。本書視角獨特，言之有據(jù)，頗具學(xué)術(shù)水準，令人耳目一新。 \nThis book lights up the historical， political and international law aspects of the Tibet conflict. Based on western scientific literature and on contemporary witnesses， it rebuts the largely dominant narrative that in 1950， the Chinese communists attacked and occupied an independent， peaceful country and， since then， tried to suppress Tibetan culture and even the Tibetan people itself. \nOn the contrary， it shows that “Tibetan independence” was a colonial project of the British Empire – a project later resumed， to some extent， by the USA within the context of the Cold War. \nThe author deals in detail with the first half of the 20th century， starting with the 13th Dalai Lama who rose later， with British support， to become a despot over an “independent Tibet“in which British agents pulled the strings. High officials and lamas loyal to China were killed then or had to flee， hole monasteries were razed to the ground. The Dalai Lama’s will for modernisation， though maintained by numerous western authors， confined itself to the creation of a "modern" army equipped and trained by the Britons. The death of the 13th Dalai Lama in 1933 led to embittered struggles for power， which the author tells in detail. The regent， who eventually came out on top， though being a lama， was corrupt and debauched. In the course of a renewed struggle for power with his equally corrupt successor， even a short civil war took place in Lhasa.
