Summary / Abstract (Note) | The new narratives in Buryatia indicate both continuities and discontinuities—on the one hand there is an affirmation of Siberia’s Russian legacy and an understanding of multiple narratives of encounter and resilience. On the other hand, there is recognition of the mechanisms of integration in the Buryat space: be it a pan-Mongol domain, a shamanist tradition, or a Buddhist spirituality. |
